I remember, about a year ago, some experts predicted that Twitter would soon begin to slowly die. Say, the number of active users is small, and continues to decrease, despite the total number of registered users. But all these predictions were somewhat premature - Twitter’s popularity slowed down, so to speak, for a very short period of time, while the administration of the service negotiated with Microsoft, Google and other companies about integration and cooperation.
Now, the creators of the service are reaping the fruits of their labor: the other day there was a message that about 200 million messages appear on Twitter every day. The administration of the microblogging service even calculated that 200 million messages of 140 characters, this is a book with 10 million countries (8,163 copies of “War and Peace”). Every second about 2400 messages pass through the company's servers. A week is about 1.4 billion posts.

Interestingly, less than a year and a half ago, the figure was 50 million messages a day. Two years ago - 10 million messages a day. As you can see, the popularity of the service continues to grow, and very actively. It is probably due to such active growth that the value of the company is already estimated at $ 10 billion. Maybe the "bubble", but quite active.
Here is an interesting infographic, where everything shown above is clearly shown.
