Amazingly, it's five years ago today that the first tweet was sent. Over these years, Twitter has matured and made an impact in the areas of social responsibility, politics, sports, media, and more. The people who use Twitter have made it what it is today, and on our fifth birthday, it's the people that make Twitter special who we are celebrating.</div><div><br/></div><div>There are now more than 400 full time employees working at Twitter. In the last year alone we have made huge progress towards <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://engineering.twitter.com/2011/03/great-migration-winter-of-2011.html">stability and performance</a>. This work sets us up to continue innovating but it also allows us to build a profitable business on a strong foundation. We are in a position now which allows us to continue serving and delighting everyone who relies on Twitter to connect them to that which is meaningful for another five years and beyond.</div><div><br/></div><div>Twitter users now send more than 140 million Tweets a day which adds up to a billion Tweets every 8 days—by comparison, it took 3 years, 2 months, and 1 day to reach the first billion Tweets. While it took about 18 months to sign up the first 500,000 accounts, we now see close to 500,000 accounts created every day. All of this momentum and growth often pales in comparison to a single compassionate Tweet by a caring person who wants to help someone in need.</div><div><br/></div><div>The people who use Twitter make it special because for any interest we might have, somebody is tweeting about it. We're lucky to have so many people using Twitter in so many interesting and important ways. This month, I celebrated my own birthday. It's a gift to be able to work with some of the most talented, thoughtful, and smart people I've ever known. It's because of them that my life has been made better. Happy Birthday, Twitter—and thank you.</div> </div> <p class="post-footer"><em>Posted by @<script type="text/javascript"> makeprofilelink("Biz");</script> at 9:40 AM</em> <a class="twitter-share-button" data-count="horizontal" data-text="Happy Birthday Twitter!" data-url="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://blog.twitter.com/2011/03/happy-birthday-twitter.html" data-via="twitter" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://twitter.com/share"></a> </p> <div id="latency-924587607413264119"></div><script type="text/javascript">if (window['tickAboveFold']) {window['tickAboveFold'](document.getElementById("latency-924587607413264119")); } </script> </li> <li class="reg-post"> <h3 class="post-title"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://blog.twitter.com/2011/03/making-twitter-more-secure-https.html">Making Twitter more secure: HTTPS</a></h3> <h2 class="date-header">Tuesday, March 15, 2011</h2> <div class="post-content"> Today, we’re taking an important step to make it easier to manage the security of your Twitter experience – we are adding a user setting that lets you always use HTTPS when accessing Twitter.com. Using HTTPS for your favorite Internet services is particularly important when using them over unsecured WiFi connections.<br/><br/>For some time, users have been able to use Twitter via HTTPS by going to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/https://twitter.com/">https://twitter.com</a>. We’ve made it simpler for users to do this by adding the option to always use HTTPS.<br/><br/>To turn on HTTPS, go to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/https://twitter.com/settings/account">your settings</a> and check the box next to “Always use HTTPS,” which is at the bottom of the page. This will improve the security of your account and better protect your information if you’re using Twitter over an unsecured Internet connection, like a public WiFi network, where someone may be able to eavesdrop on your site activity. In the future, we hope to make HTTPS the default setting.<br/><br/><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-94DBI5ebfYM/TX-2sapayLI/AAAAAAAAAL4/mVI270fzofs/s1600/Always%2Buse%2BHTTPS.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 169px;" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609im_/http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-94DBI5ebfYM/TX-2sapayLI/AAAAAAAAAL4/mVI270fzofs/s400/Always%2Buse%2BHTTPS.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584382937146247346"/></a><br/>We’ve already made this setting the default for a number of clients and activities. In these cases, HTTPS is used whether or not you’ve enabled the “Always use HTTPS” setting:<br/><ul><li>When you log into Twitter, so your password stays protected.</li><li>On the official Twitter for iPhone and iPad mobile application.</li></ul><br/>There are also a few instances where turning on HTTPS in your settings does not force HTTPS. For example, when accessing Twitter from your mobile browser, you need to go to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/https://mobile.twitter.com/">https://mobile.twitter.com</a> to use HTTPS for now. We are working on a solution that will share the “Always use HTTPS” setting across twitter.com and mobile.twitter.com, so you don’t have to think about which device you’re using when you want to check Twitter. If you use a third-party application, you should check to see if that app offers HTTPS. </div> <p class="post-footer"><em>Posted by @<script type="text/javascript"> makeprofilelink("cpen");</script> at 2:06 PM</em> <a class="twitter-share-button" data-count="horizontal" data-text="Making Twitter more secure: HTTPS" data-url="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://blog.twitter.com/2011/03/making-twitter-more-secure-https.html" data-via="twitter" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://twitter.com/share"></a> </p> <div id="latency-8293495592468647400"></div><script type="text/javascript">if (window['tickAboveFold']) {window['tickAboveFold'](document.getElementById("latency-8293495592468647400")); } </script> </li> <li class="reg-post"> <h3 class="post-title"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://blog.twitter.com/2011/03/numbers.html">#numbers</a></h3> <h2 class="date-header">Monday, March 14, 2011</h2> <div class="post-content"> Five years ago this week, a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/https://twitter.com/#!/jack/status/47060885482635264">small team of people</a> started working on a prototype of the service that we now know as Twitter.

There’s a camera button in the toolbar and we improved the image preview, so you can quickly choose a photo from your library or take a new picture.<br/><b>- Follow your friends.</b> Now you can find which of your friends are on Twitter that have chosen to be discoverable through the contacts on your phone.<br/><b>- Local trends. </b>See trends based on your location.<br/><b>- Shorten links.</b> When you want to share a link on Twitter, just paste it into the Tweet box and we’ll automatically shorten it.<br/><b>- Tweet box design.</b> We redesigned the “New Tweet” screen so it’s now cleaner and simpler.<br/><b>- Autocomplete.</b> When tweeting on-the-go, speed and accuracy are important. Autocomplete for @usernames and hashtags help you tweet faster<br/><b>- Direct Messages.</b> The new Direct Message conversation view helps you better keep track of messages.<br/><br/><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OwdVF7X9ulE/TW_d0goR08I/AAAAAAAAALg/lbssR2Y-fTk/s1600/iphone-screenshot-4.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609im_/http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OwdVF7X9ulE/TW_d0goR08I/AAAAAAAAALg/lbssR2Y-fTk/s320/iphone-screenshot-4.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5579922357517145026"/></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HaqHBVQgxus/TW_d7rO8sHI/AAAAAAAAALo/-lWY5JK-DKY/s1600/iphone-screenshot-5a.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609im_/http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HaqHBVQgxus/TW_d7rO8sHI/AAAAAAAAALo/-lWY5JK-DKY/s320/iphone-screenshot-5a.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5579922480622776434"/></a></div><br/><br/>And one very cool update is iPhone specific – for now.

The Translation Center allows us to crowdsource translations from our passionate users in order to more quickly launch Twitter in additional languages. <br/><br/>Translators will be translating the product itself, not the Tweets. If you go to the settings page on Twitter.com and change your language, you’ll see what we mean.<br/><br/>We currently offer Twitter in English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish. These languages are all included in the Translation Center so translators can continue to help us with updates. We’ve also added Indonesian, Russian and Turkish to the Translation Center, as Twitter will be translated to those languages next. We plan to introduce more languages throughout the year, such as Portuguese. <br/><br/>Crowdsourcing translations isn’t new for us. Since October, 2009, we’ve counted on Twitter users to volunteer as translators and help us localize Twitter. For this launch, we created a completely new system, based on feedback from translators, to improve the translation experience.<br/><br/><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BQootwj2mug/TVjQORImICI/AAAAAAAAAK4/7zcuZ60x1ZU/s1600/Twitter%2BTranslation%2BCenter-2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 220px;" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609im_/http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BQootwj2mug/TVjQORImICI/AAAAAAAAAK4/7zcuZ60x1ZU/s320/Twitter%2BTranslation%2BCenter-2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573433482407190562"/></a><br/><b>How does it work?</b><br/>The new Translation Center allows any Twitter user to sign up, choose a language and begin translating immediately. Translators can now help localize twitter.com, mobile.twitter.com, Twitter for iPhone and iPad, Twitter for Android, Twitter Help and the Twitter Business Center. We also improved the Center’s search functionality, added phrase tagging, created special translator profiles, enabled commenting on phrases and much more. <br/><br/>At this time, we have opened up the Translation Center to users who speak French, Indonesian, Italian, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish. If you speak any of these languages, you can start helping us translate!

Six months ago, it wasn’t among the top 10 most-used Twitter applications. However, in the last two months, usage has doubled, and now it’s among the top five – along with twitter.com, m.twitter.com (our mobile web site), Twitter for iPhone and Twitter for Blackberry.<br/><br/>Today, we’re launching a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/https://market.android.com/details?id=com.twitter.android">new version of Twitter for Android</a>. It looks and feels more like our other official Twitter applications and provides a more consistent experience across platforms and devices.<br/><br/><b>Use Twitter without signing in</b><br/>You can use Twitter for Android even if you haven’t signed in or don’t have an account. You can view trends, browse your interests and see suggested users in several categories, including fashion, entertainment and travel, or search to find out what people are saying about topics you care about, such as big sporting events. You can now also sign up for Twitter from within the app.<br/><br/><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hcnZ74EIM3A/TVRIYQ5K_-I/AAAAAAAAAKw/P7Fkchsfqr8/s1600/android-screenshot-4b.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609im_/http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hcnZ74EIM3A/TVRIYQ5K_-I/AAAAAAAAAKw/P7Fkchsfqr8/s320/android-screenshot-4b.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572158220652969954"/></a><br/><b>Design</b><br/>We made some significant changes in the design of the new app. When you first sign in, you’ll see your timeline, along with icons along the top that let you view @mentions, messages, and lists. This layout makes it fast and simple to navigate Twitter on your Android device. Also, the @mentions tab now includes Retweets; seeing replies and Retweets in one place offers a quick way to better understand which Tweets are sparking interest and engagement. In addition, we introduced auto-complete for usernames.<br/><br/><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WhEQKCWgNw4/TVRH-qhSCXI/AAAAAAAAAKo/EC1yo1M1E1Q/s1600/android-screenshot-1b.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609im_/http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WhEQKCWgNw4/TVRH-qhSCXI/AAAAAAAAAKo/EC1yo1M1E1Q/s320/android-screenshot-1b.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572157780855490930"/></a><br/><b>Search</b><br/>We’ve also introduced universal search to this version of Twitter for Android. This means that when you search, you can find Tweets with the term you’re looking for, Tweets sent by people near your location, or people whose user names include that term.<br/><br/>For example, let’s say you want to search for “packers". As you type “packers” in the search box, you’ll see the following suggestions:<br/><ul><li>search packers: this will return Tweets that include the word “packers”</li><li>search packers nearby: this will return Tweets that include the word “packers” and are sent by nearby users</li><li>search packers in people: this will return accounts that have “packers” in the name</li><li>@packers: this option will skip search results and take you directly to the account, if it exists (in this example, it does)</li></ul>And, last but not least, at the bottom of the search section is one of my favorite new features: you can scan your address book to find which of your friends, who have chosen to be discoverable, are also on Twitter. New users will get a chance to do this when they first go through the sign-up process on the app.<br/><br/>You can <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/https://market.android.com/details?id=com.twitter.android">download Twitter for Android</a> from Android Market on devices with Android 2.1 or higher. </div> <p class="post-footer"><em>Posted by @<script type="text/javascript"> makeprofilelink("cpen");</script> at 12:50 PM</em> <a class="twitter-share-button" data-count="horizontal" data-text="Twitter for Android - new and improved" data-url="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://blog.twitter.com/2011/02/twitter-for-android-new-and-improved.html" data-via="twitter" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://twitter.com/share"></a> </p> <div id="latency-3618540633931309397"></div><script type="text/javascript">if (window['tickAboveFold']) {window['tickAboveFold'](document.getElementById("latency-3618540633931309397")); } </script> </li> <li class="reg-post"> <h3 class="post-title"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://blog.twitter.com/2011/02/superbowl.html">#superbowl</a></h3> <h2 class="date-header">Wednesday, February 09, 2011</h2> <div class="post-content"> A record <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/https://twitter.com/#!/nflprguy/status/34709325570121729">162.9 million people</a> watched this year’s Super Bowl, making it the most-watched television event ever.<br/><br/>The big event had its own Twitter record, too. If you tweeted at 10:07:16pm EST, you helped set a new Twitter record: during the final moments of the game, fans sent 4,064 Tweets per second (TPS) – the highest TPS for any sporting event. That spike shattered the previous record in the sporting world: the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://blog.twitter.com/2010/06/another-big-record-part-deux.html">3,283 TPS</a> sent during Japan’s 3-1 victory over Denmark during last summer’s World Cup. In fact, Twitter users shattered that record six times over the course of the game – including early touchdowns by the Packers and Steelers and throughout the halftime show. (Still, all of this Super Bowl tweeting wasn’t enough to top <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://blog.twitter.com/2011/01/celebrating-new-year-with-new-tweet.html">the all-time record of 6,939 TPS</a>, set just after midnight in Japan on New Year’s eve.)<br/><br/><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hcnZ74EIM3A/TVL675CUS3I/AAAAAAAAAKg/fRzykOwPrnI/s1600/tps%2Bcopy.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 169px;" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609im_/http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hcnZ74EIM3A/TVL675CUS3I/AAAAAAAAAKg/fRzykOwPrnI/s400/tps%2Bcopy.png" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571791595840490354"/></a>The surprise winner of the Super Bowl? Usher (@UsherRaymondIV). His sudden appearance during the Black Eyed Peas’ (@bep) halftime show performance created the second largest peak in Tweets during the game. Plus, the continued talk about him made him the most talked about person during the Super Bowl. The Peas were next on the list of most-discussed people, followed by Slash, Eminem, and Christina Aguilera. Aaron Rodgers, the most mentioned player, was sixth. <br/><br/>So which commercials and brands were people talking about most during the game? Doritos, whose "<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110329013609/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpjaOUjUPUc&feature=player_embedded">Pug Attack</a>" commercial was a popular favorite, was this year’s champion.
