50% ? I'd be interested to see some data on that. Do these come up saying "from sms" rather than "Web"? If so, I've never seen one.

This pegs 'txt' as pretty darn low (3%): http://tweetstats.com/twitter_stats

Also months stats from Jan: http://dcortesi.com/2009/02/19/the-real-top-20-twitter-appli...



Wow, I stand corrected. I must have been thinking "50% of twitter is not from the web" and translating that to "50% is from txt". Apologies.

I stand by the value of SMS as a driver of valuable content, and in the developing world.


Possibly, but since it only accounts for 3% of tweets, I think they could pretty safely change the limit if they felt like it.
