Twitter officially revealed via its blog today that it has surpassed 100 million active users on the micro-blogging service, a little over five years since launch. Twitter says that more than half of its users log in everyday and 40% of active members simply log in to check their tweets, not tweet themselves.
The company also stated that support for Hindi, Filipino, Malay and Simplified and Traditional Chinese will be available in the coming weeks, bringing the number of languages that Twitter supports to 17.
This is without a doubt a major milestone for Twitter and at the same time, it shows how many people are beginning to switch to social media, like Twitter, to get their daily dose of news around the globe.
