Twitter Users Now Send 200 Million Tweets A Day

Twitter users are now sending 200 million Tweets per day, according to new stats from the company. In January of 2009, users sent only two million Tweets a day, and one year ago they posted 65 million a day. That means 1 billion Tweets are sent every five days.

For perspective Twitter offers that every day the world writes the equivalent of a 10 million-page book in Tweets or 8,163 copies of Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace. Reading this much text would take more than 31 years and stacking this many copies of War and Peace would reach the height of about 1,470 feet, , nearly the ground-to-roof height of Taiwan’s Taipei 101, the second tallest building in the world.
