I have been writing about several software and services crossing one milestone or the other, but this time it is <a title=\"All you want to know about Twitter\" href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/tag\/twitter\" rel=\"tag\" >Twitter<\/a> again who will cross 10 billion tweets in the next day or so.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px\" title=\"twitter_billion_tweets\" border=\"0\" alt=\"twitter_billion_tweets\" src=\"http:\/\/cache.techie-buzz.com\/images\/postimg\/TwitterCountingDownTowards10BillionTweet_350E\/twitter_billion_tweets.png\" width=\"544\" height=\"203\" \/> <\/p>\n<p>Right now the number of tweets is very close to the 1 billion mark, and according to the Twitter tweet counter, <a href=\"http:\/\/popacular.com\/gigatweet\/\" >GigaTweet<\/a>, the 10 billion tweet mark will be breached in the next day or so. This is double whammy for Twitter, as they had recently announced that there were about <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/social-networking\/50-million-twitter-tweets-per-day.html\" >50 million tweets per day on Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>10 billion tweets is definitely a great feat to achieve. The iTunes Store was another service to achieve <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/tech-news\/itunes-billion-song-download-countdown-and-10000-itunes-gift-card-content.html\" >10 billion song downloads<\/a> recently. So, it looks like we are finally out of the recession and now talking about only billions and not millions these days.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, I have been on Twitter for since 2007 and it has evolved a lot under my eyes. I do believe that Twitter does deserve this feat, however, they also have to work a lot towards ensuring that Twitter trends do not get spammed and that we do not receive <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/social-networking\/horny-twitter-dm-spam.html\" >unwanted<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/techie-buzz.com\/social-networking\/twitter-dm-phishing-spam-this-you.html\" >DM Spam<\/a> in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s hope that the person who tweets the 10 billionth tweet gets something good from Twitter.
