5 Billion. That’s the kind of mind boggling number that the mind can’t really visualize. We have a conceptual idea, like the notion of our planet being like a grain of sand on the beach in comparison to the numbers of stars on the planets in the universe. We get it, we just can’t “get it” if you know what I mean.
Regardless, 5 billion is a huge number that also happens to be equal to the number of tweets we’ve all spewed forth since the first person first hit update.
What have we been tweeting about all this time? What has this mass of verbal textual diarrhea amounted to? I’d love to see a proper breakdown of what daily minutiae has most resulted in causing ADD released by twitter, but for the moment this graph will just have to do!
5 Billion Brain Farts Captured In Time!
There are a few things missing from this chart though. For one there is no mention of “toilet tweets“…
