The findings regarding social influencers can help companies identify the key people or organizations with whom they must engage. In addition, we used a social network diagram to depict how event information is disseminated from the influencers. This diagram shows the top influencers at different stages of information dissemination. Effectively modeling relationships among top users and accordingly using them to filter or recommend information are fundamental for mining social networking services. To illustrate our approach, we used the tweets from the Windows 8.1 launch event as a case study. %G English %Z TC 8 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01405635/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01405635/file/978-3-662-45237-0_48_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01405635 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01405635 %~ SHS %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC8 %~ IFIP-LNCS-8838 %~ IFIP-CISIM
