Twitter - 10,000 flu tweets per hr

[GhostRN]

Trendrr, which tracks trends across social media sites, just sent over the numbers, and they are off the charts - literally.

As you can see in the chart below, Tweets about ?Swine Flu? are now at 10,000 per hour, up from an average of a few thousand earlier in the day. Of course, this is the snowball effect that Twitter can have on a given subject, whether it be Christian Bale, Susan Boyle, Ashton Kutcher or other viral phenomenons that we?ve seen pop up since the microblogging site crossed the chasm so to speak. http://mashable.com/2009/04/27/swine-flu-twitter/
