Measures of centrality describe an individual node’s importance within a larger network. Individuals with high centrality typically have “high involvement in many relations, regardless of send/receive directionality, or volume of activity.” In the context of a Twitter interaction, a user with high centrality would frequently get mentioned by other users, regardless of whether the user initiated the conversation or not, and would also frequently initiate interactions with other people in their networks.
