united nations of tweet

…in relative terms, the world’s top tweeting nation are the Netherlands, with just over 22% of the Dutch online population using Twitter. The US, at 8%, is far behind Brazil (almost 22%), Venezuela (21%) and Indonesia (19%). So it’s a fair guess that a majority of the 200 million tweets generated every day are in languages other than English…

the world as depicted through the varied languages used on twitter, as usual with other similar projects the whole continent of africa is virtually invisible, surprise ‘hot spot’ on this one is the netherlands… see the hi-res image here
