Twitter adorably says it's bigger than Facebook

September 18, 2015 by Paul Spoerry 8 Comments



Twitter makes the case it’s bigger than Facebook (really)
Some unconvincing fuzzy math at play here.

Of course to make that claim you have to distance yourself from how math works: Facebook counts 1.49 billion users, Twitter reported 316 million users in the second quarter. But with some mental gymnastics they worthy of it's own spot on the Olympic team they can do fuzzy math that somehow inflates them to be larger than Facebook.

About Paul Spoerry

I’m a groovy cat who’s into technology, Eastern Thought, and house music. I’m a proud and dedicated father to the coolest little guy on the planet (seriously, I'm NOT biased). I’m fascinated by ninjas, the Internet, and anybody who can balance objects on their nose for long periods of time.

I have a utility belt full of programming languages and a database of all my knowledge on databases... I practice code fu. Oh, I've also done actual Kung Fu, and have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.

I run. I meditate. I dance. I blog at PaulSpoerry.com, tweet @PaulSpoerry, and I'm here on Google+.

I'm currently work for IBM developing web enabled insurance applications for IBM and support and develop a non-profit called The LittleBigFund.

    If I could choose to own either company I'd still pick twitter because I'll take quality of users over quantity.

    It would be like asking do you want the McDonald's fan base or the Chipolte fan base.

    I'm confused +Travis Owens which one is Chipotle and which one is McDonalds?

    I'm actually surprised it's not obvious ….
    FB is McDonalds and Twitter is Chipolte

    Oh see I'd see it as the opposite +Travis Owens (and trust me I have no love for FB). I mean how many meaningful conversations can you have on Twitter? At least on FB you can long form post topics and replies. Twitter you get cheap, bite sized chunks of info and that's about it IMHO.

    True.. it can go both ways. Lack of comments and in turn interaction is why I dislike Twitter.
