Twitter Infographic

June 7th 2011

I’ve always found infographics very interesting and inspiring so I decided to give it a go and venture into the world of infographics. At the time, there was a lot of talk in the media about how quickly Twitter was growing, so I decided to to create an infographic to illustrate these facts.

I spent a few days researching information and gathering the facts I needed. Once I had everything I needed I began putting everything into order.

I chose to start with the top 10 tweeting countries. A map always looked great on in an infographic, so it was very easy to choose how I wanted to portray this information.

The same with the colour scheme, I felt it was important I stuck with Twitter’s official colour scheme so that there was a clear visual connection between the two.

Next I created a nice simple box and bar graph layout to discuss figures for Twitter, from the growing Twitter users, to number of tweets sent per day and number of unique visits.
