Australian Twitter use hits all-time high

Use of the micro-blogging service Twitter service in Australia hit an all-time high for the week ending 10 January 2009, increasing year-on-year in web visits by 517.9% for that week compared with the same week in the previous year.

While corporate take up is slower in Australia than in the US the service offers the same advantages to organisations here which are keen to communicate short messages to a time poor audience.
