That's true, but activity as a whole is certainly growing based on the chart that looks at tweets.
Last month, there was a lot of hubbub about Twitter's growth flat lining. Matthew Daines, the lead developer of our own Twitter app, Twellow, showed me a graph that he put together from the user IDs he found in the Twitter API, based on when they registered with Twitter.

What Matthew found was that there was a significantly larger number of new registrations in April - the month Oprah joined, which caused a well-publicized surge in new Twitter users. So naturally, the next month didn't see as many new users flocking to Twitter, but it was still i decent increase from the month before Oprah joined.
Daines has now shared a new graph with me, which seems to suggest Twitter is still growing just fine. June shows that new registrations are right at what they were in April, when Oprah joined, which means that there are quite a few new people.

We should be able to get a really good idea of Twitter's growth when we can take a look at July's numbers in a month. At that point, we can see which direction the trend goes. I think we're going to see growth though. Take a look at this other graph Daines shared with me, which shows the number of tweets. It looks like there is a lot more tweeting going on.

"Looks like the total tweets chart shows that the claim last month that Twitter traffic had come to a stop was not quite accurate," says Daines. "The total tweet numbers are not exact, but should be within a few hundred thousand."
So, do you think we will consider to see significant Twitter growth as the year goes on? Or do you believe Twitter as already peaked? Share your thoughts.
