A hundred?





No, ok I'll play sensibly. A million is far too small a number for this phenomenon. Without ever having used Twitter or even looked at the website, I would imagine using intelligent (subject to opinion) guesswork that the number you are looking for is not even one billion (10to the power of 9), but one TRILLION (10to the power of 12).

How do you get superscript up and running? Must be ctrl+alt based I'd imagine.


No, no a TRILLION is outrageous, what am I saying one billion people signed up and tweeted on average 1000 times each?


I'll go with ONE BILLION. Final answer.


ONE BILLION CHRIS - TURN IT ORANGE.
