Twitter continues to grow at a shocking rate.
The latest Nielsen numbers show that Twitter grew by 1,382 percent from February of 2008 to February of 2009. During that time, more than 7 million unique U.S. visitors hit the site.
The company’s growth rate just boggles my mind.
Also notes in the report – Facebook continued to pull away from MySpace. 65.7 million unique visitors hit Facebook vs 54.1 million for MySpace.
Facebook vs Twitter, however, promises to be a battle for the ages.
Facebook is massively ahead of Twitter. It also just revamped its home page, however, to convey a more real-time experience in an obvious attempt to compete with Twitter.
