When he landed, he was met by a stranger in a tuxedo, holding a sign with his name on it in one hand and a bag from Morton’s Steakhouse in the other. “Alex, from Morton’s Hackensack walks up to me, introduces himself, and hands me a bag. He proceeds to tell me that he’d heard I was hungry, and inside is a 24 oz.

Everyone is into Twitter, except Twitter themselves.
There’s something strange going on in Twitter at the moment. The site continues to go from strength to strength in terms of users and tweets sent and the interest in Twitter as a platform remains high as it benefits from celebrity endorsement and integration with news media. Yet it seems that everyone is into Twitter, except the Twitter team themselves. It seems the direction of the business is in contention, shown most recently with their decision to work openly with developers, in contrast to the line they took with external development earlier this year.A new Twitter tool has just launched, that allows you to track where the majority of your Twitter followers are from. Twocation tracks the top countries your Twitter followers are based and though it may seem like just a quirky tool to use and tweet about, it actually provides an incredibly useful piece of insight to brands and individuals, which is currently lacking within Twitter. The site is very easy to use. You simply connect through your Twitter account to be given a percentage breakdown of your followers by location, with the top 3 locations presented as a summary, as well as scrolling down to a full country breakdown in full. And thankfully, the site doesn’t auto-tweet for you, but does provide you with an editable tweet to share the site with your followers.

Here at OSM, microblogging site Twitter is one of our most popular topics and many of us have become regular users, to an extent we never could have imagined when it was launched. Last month we shared an infographic showing the success story of Twitter and now we have news for you of a new infographic that displays how people actually use Twitter. This latest infographic was brought to our attention by Charlie White over on Mashable and created by Lab42 and asked 500 Twitter users what’s trending @Twitter in regards to how they use it.
