Twitter’s Exponential Growth Rate
Twitter has grown pretty large in just 4 years, and now the Twitter analytics team has released the graphs to visualize it. The following graph shows the amount of Tweets per Day.

“Folks were tweeting 5,000 times a day in 2007. By 2008, that number was 300,000, and by 2009 it had grown to 2.5 million per day. Tweets grew 1,400% last year to 35 million per day. Today, we are seeing 50 million tweets per day—that’s an average of 600 tweets per second. (Yes, we have TPS reports.)”
