According to a National research study by University of Technology Sydney (UTS), on average Australian’s send out around 80 tweets per second, or 5000 Tweets a minute on average – which equates to about 234 million tweets a month.

Dr Suresh Sood from UTS undertook the study and has a number of other interesting facts, including:

– 58% of all Tweets come out of Sydney or Melbourne

– Melbourne Twitter users were more social than Sydneysiders

– Twitter users from Adelaide were the nicest

– Sydney users swear the most, Brisbane comes in second

– Canberra Twitter users were the most aggressive

Dick Costello, Twitter CEO recently reported around 250 million tweets are posted every day.
