Twitter stats

Twitter have published some stats of the kind of usage they are seeing, including a breakdown of traffic to the Twitter Web site by country and a chart showing the breakdown of twits (twitterers?) by how many followers they have.  As they note, these kinds of breakdown may be heavily skewed by the fact that they are only looking at Web traffic, not tweets via SMS or via the Twitter API.

Speaking personally, I'm seeing a significant growth in the usage of Twitter in my social network, both in terms of number of twits and number of tweets - a trend that I expect to continue for the next while.
