    "It took three years, two months and one day for the first billion tweets to be sent. From the time the company started in 2006 to mid-2009 three years, two months and one day for the first billion tweets to be sent. It has a nice rhythm that it was three, two, one. It probably wasn't exactly one day, but we like to say that; so it's three, two, one," he said. "We now send a billion tweets every two and a half days. So the volume, the noise level has increased dramatically."

Recollect: Collecting Your Digital Trail - 0 views

  •  
    Recollect essentially saves your entire digital social media trail so you never lose any post, photo, check-in or anything else all in one handy dandy place. It's like a massive dropbox for your entire social media history. What does this say about us as users that we can't stand the thought of losing anything online. This massively gives me the creeps.

    Reading about this has given me a new respect for LinkedIn. It seems like it's the new Facebook (in terms of being a media darling). It also made me think about being a "prosumer" and how LinkedIn creates a win-win situation for both recruiters and users.

50 percent say Facebook pages are more useful than websites - 0 views

  •  
    As more people turn to brands on Facebook, it's important to know why they do-or don't-click "like." Consider these new findings. I find this surprising. Maybe because I don't "like" brands on Facebook to avoid a cluttered page and newsfeed. Personally, seeing a brand's post all the time would turn me away from the brand. I'm not sure why, but I still seem to have this mentality that Facebook brand pages aren't as "legit". But that's just me. Check out the infographic.
