1.5 million Twitter users

On this blog, I have been tracking the number of Twitter users reported by Twitdir. On April 28, I announced that Twitter passed the 1 million mark.

According to Twitdir, Twitter has currently over 1.5 million users. Over a period of a little bit more than two weeks Twitdir was capable of detecting 0.5 million users. This sudden increase in the number reported by Twitdir is probably due to a change in its algorithm, as announced on the Twitdir blog.



Who wants to make a guess when Twitter will reach the 2 million mark ?

I guess we'll reach 2 million users when they update their algorythm again ;)

Do you have an educated guess on the amount of Belgian or Dutch language audience on Twitter?

Hi Jeroen,

Educated guesses :
Belgium : > 2000
The Netherlands : > 5500

These figures refer to Twitter accounts explicitely mentioning a location in their Twitter profiles.
