Justin Bieber Uses 3% Of Twitter Server Space – The young popstar responsible for hits such as ‘Baby’ and ‘Runaway Love’ claims a massive 3% of Twitter traffic!
Dustin Curtis, a designer, tweeted on Monday saying “At any moment, Justin Bieber uses 3% of our infrastructure. Racks of servers are dedicated to him,” after chatting with an employee of the immensely popular social networking site.
Bieber has more than 5 million followers on the site, but he is certainly not the only one with dedicated servers!
Curtis went on to say, “most of the popular users on Twitter have dedicated servers for their accounts.” Ashton Kutcher, Kim Kardashian and Britney Spears all have over 4 million followers.
In a change to their algorithm, Twitter now spotlights new topics that rise in popularity rather than long-time trending topics, meaning that Bieber isn’t coming up on those lists anymore. “@justinbieber the TT tweak is nothing personal. It was long planned & better shows what is emerging right now,”, joked the site on their own personal page.
