Twitter turns 5, goes from 0 to 140 million tweets a day
Happy birthday twitter! This article has informed me of so many interesting facts about this quick growing communication site not to mention ideas. Five years ago cofounder Jack Dorsey posted the very first twitter tweet. This new experiment was called microblogging and asked that you have no more than 140 characters. Believe it or not Twitter has over 200 million users which began to grow in 2007. Twitter has an average of around 140 million tweets a day or 1,600 each second including numerous celebrities who are members as well.
Thanks to glitches in the Twitter site during the expansion project twitter has a new mascot, the fail whale. Even though it isn't the most pleasant time when viewers see this now famous creature of the sea it is sure to put a smile on their face at the least.
I am so happy for Twitter who is clearly doing well in not only their expansion project but daily tweeting as well!
Keep up the good work,
Your observer, Halle-Kate
