This report analyzes data from over 4.5 million Twitter profiles to summarize statistics on user activity and growth on the platform. Some key findings include that over 50% of accounts have never tweeted, over 75% have not added a bio, and 9.06% of accounts are considered inactive. The number of new users per day has accelerated significantly from 5-10 thousand previously. While active users tweet almost daily, the majority of accounts show little engagement. The report also examines trends in locations, times of use, and how followers/following distributions follow a long tail pattern.

(SKIP TO SLIDE 113 IF YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT TWITTER IS.) A presentation I gave at the Nurun Montreal head office in February 2009. The subject covers an idea I had about leveraging the viral potential of Twitter to benefit both its users and third parties looking for some marketing love.
Social media has a powerful place in crisis management not only as a way to get notifications and status messages out but to also gather intelligence about events and gather feedback. This presentation by Mark Gibbs at Everbridge's Notification World conference introduces social media and then focuses on the use of and technology behind Twitter.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

1. State of the Twittersphere

To discuss this report on Twitter use hashtag: #SOTwitter
Compiled by Dan Zarrella @DanZarrella

2. Overview
Here at HubSpot, we’re big fans of Twitter (you can follow @
HubSpot and @Grader and we built Twitter Grader (http://Twitter.
Grader.com) to help people evaluate and improve their Twitter pres-
ence. With all the data we’ve collected from Twitter Grader (infor-
mation on over 4.5 million users), we thought it was time to update
last year's State of the Twittersphere and share that back with the
community for all of you marketing and Internet geeks (like us).
This time around we think the most interesting points of data we
see center around the “activity” levels of many accounts on Twitter.
For instance:
• 79.79% failed to provide a homepage URL
• 75.86% of users have not entered a bio in their profile
• 68.68% have not specified a location
• 55.50% are not following anyone
• 54.88% have never tweeted
• 52.71% have no followers
In an effort to quantify exactly how many dormant accounts exist,
we labeled users as inactive if they satisfy all of the following condi-
tions:
• Fewer than 10 followers
• Fewer than 10 friends
• Fewer than 10 updates
By this definition, 9.06% of all Twitter users are inactive.

3. Twitter Growth
In last year’s version of this report, we discovered that Twitter was
growing at an astounding rate of 5-10 thousand new accounts per
day. Clearly that rate has since accelerated and it has reached a
point where it is futile to attempt to generate a flat growth rate num-
ber.
The graph below how the percentage of users of the service who
joined in each month we have data on.

4. Twitter User Base Statistics
In the last version of the State of the Twittersphere, we reported
that 80% of users had specified a bio in their Twitter profile. This
time around we’ve seen that number (as well as a few other indica-
tors of account activity and completeness) shift dramatically.
• 24.14% of users have a bio in their profile
• 31.32% of users have a location in their profile
• 20.21% of users have a homepage URL in their profile
• 45.12% of users have tweeted at least once
• 47.29% of users have at least one follower
• 44.50% of users are following at least one account
Though we have noticed that those users who are actively using
Twitter do so on a regular basis.
• The average user tweets .97 times per day
• The average user has tweeted 119.34 times in total
• The average user has a following-to-follower ratio of .7738
We have also found that the distribution of following and follower
numbers falls into a pattern very similar to a power-law or “long tail”
curve, as evidenced by the two graphs on the following page.
You’ll notice a spike around 2000 on the following graph, this is due
to the fact that Twitter limits users to only following a maxium of
2000 users untill they have more than 2000 followers.
The y-axis of the following graphs is on a logarithmic scale to allow
for more granularity.

6. Statistics on Tweets
When we look at the content of tweets that are posted by users we
see that users are frequently using Twitter to interact and communi-
cate with other users rather than just answer the “What are you do-
ing?” question.
• 1.44% of all tweets are retweets
• 37.95% of all tweets contain an “@” symbol (mentions)
• 33.44% of all tweets start with an “@” symbol (replies)
We also see that many users are reaching the 140-character limit in
an attempt to get as much content as possible into every update.
The distribution of posting over days and times-of-day shows us
that business hours during the business week in the US are the
most popular, as seen in the next two graphs.

8. Geography
Because the location field on Twitter profiles does not contain any
structured data (Twitter does not require people to separate city
from state or province, etc.) it is hard to do any detailed analysis on
this data. However, the list of the top thirty most common phrases
people type into their location section on their bio shows that Twitter
seems to be popular in major English-speaking cities.
