Earlier this month the traffic monitoring service comScore released their global numbers for March of 2009. And, with those results came some astonishing numbers for everyone’s favorite compulsive microblogging service, Twitter.
Twitter.com’s worldwide visitors increased a whopping 95 percent in March from 9.8 million to 19.1 million, according to the report. It’s expected that Ashton Kutcher’s race with CNN to one million followers and Oprah’s introduction were both large parts of the traffic increase.
It should be noted though, that this is only traffic on Twitter’s site, not an actual tally of active users. And it doesn’t track users that use the service by means of desktop or mobile client. All things considered, these are still some pretty impressive numbers.

If I want to know what my real friends are doing I'll call them. As for all this online or texting "social networking" crap, they can keep it.

It's getting too time consuming for me to trudge through all the facebook ads/crap apps. All I care about really is seeing my friends status updates and photos/videos. On top of being inundated with ads on facebook, it's getting increasingly annoying to have to individually disable facebook apps so I don't have to scroll through all the "Which character are you" type updates that flood my main feed. As soon as the people I care about are on Twitter, I'm done with facebook.
