Twitter Users Grow 300% in 2 Months

2009 May 21

You may not know what Twitter is or you may not understand why anyone would want to use it, but the numbers should get your attention.  Imagine if I told you about an upcoming business that had more than tripled its consumer base for 10 million to 32 million in only 2 months.  Oh and you could tap into that group.  Twitter is a revolution that every leader should be following!

Below is an article that should peak your interest in what is happening with right now with Twitter.  This is only the beginning of where this company will be.  If you haven’t heard someone referring to Twitter or tweating yet.  You will.

To put that in growth into perspective, Twitter has just passed Digg (23 million), LinkedIn (16 million), and the NYTimes.com (17.5 million) in monthly unique visitors, as counted by comScore. And comScore only measures the number of people who visit Twitter’s Website, not the millionsmore who send and read tweets via their phones, desktop apps, or other Websites.  – Link

I’m going to be covering lots of information on how to use Twitter and other social networks to market your company/organization in future posts.  If you have any comments about this article or questions about Twitter, leave them in the comments below.  I will use them in future articles.
