Twitter: 140 Million Tweets Per Day

Twitter says that users are posting 140 million tweets a day. The company didn't give stats on how many of those are actually worth reading / following...my guess is like 0.01%.

Among them: It took three years, two months, and one day for Twitter to hit 1 billion tweets; now, a billion tweets are posted in the course of a week. An average of 460,000 new accounts were created per day over the past month, and an average of 140 million tweets were posted per day. Twitter now has 400 employees, 50 of whom have been hired since January.
