Great data and it seems about right at least with my experiences. Most of the people I know that signed up for Twitter no longer use it. It’s certainly a bandwagon tool.

If I had to guess, I’d say that a majority of the companies using it will soon realize their ROI isn’t worthy of maintaining an active account. There is however a huge amount of people that are active so Twitter will likely stay beneficial for some for awhile.

I think it’s fun

Wow. 74% of users have less than 10 followers. I personally think there is a hell of a lot of trash on Twitter and unlike Facebook is used heavily by marketers. But saying that i still think its a great medium for gaining new business for any company if done correctly and not abused. I am definitely one those who goes for quality over quantity in regards to followers. Thanks for the post. Its insightful.

I’m definitely around the low follower – low tweet area… I suppose if I tweeted more I’d have more followers, but i’m still more of a facebook user than twitter. do you think twitter is heading the way of over taking facebook, usage wise?
