15 Aug 10 7% of the World Population Hooked to Twitter

In a report, comScore has revealed that 7% of the total world population is hooked to twitter. It also revealed that of 41 countries — that was reported in the report — Indonesia has the highest percentage of people (20.8%) hooked on the internet from home or office. The study which led to the report was conducted among people of 15 years of age or more.

The country to come at second position was Brazil with 20.5% twitter users, and number three was taken by Venezuela (19%). The rising penetration of twitter in Venezuela is attributed to the joining of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. In just couple of month of his joining, twitter user base in Venezuela grew by 4.8%.
