Twitter may not be the most popular website yet, but it’s in a hurry to get there. From 5,000 to 50 million tweets a day in the space of three years—whoa!
Twitter may not be the most popular website in the world, but it sure is getting there. ‘Folks were tweeting 5,000 times a day in 2007,’ says the site’s official blog. By 2008, it was up to 300,000, and by 2009, it was 2.5 million a day. ‘Today, we are seeing 50 million tweets per day… an average of 600 tweets per second,’ it adds. The average human breathing cycle is about four seconds. So for every breath you take, 2,400 tweets are posted.
