No. We go through a user's followers by hand; identify common influencers and interests; cross reference these against interesting content from a range of sources. We will eventually look for scalable aspects, however right now we're trying to figure out what works best on an individual level.

Right now no. We use intuition to extract these. We're taking notes though!
Good luck then in that case! :)
