Twitter is Not Your Average Social Network
A study conducted by Harvard Business Review reveals that most Twitter users don’t actually use the service much, or even at all. In fact, 10% of active users are responsible for over 90% of all Tweets.
According to the research, conducted on a random sample of about 300,000 Twitter (
) users in May 2009, 25% of Twitter users don’t tweet at all, while 50% of users tweet less than once every 74 hours. Active users, on the other hand, tweet a lot, which makes Twitter a lot more like Wikipedia (
) than an average social network .
