Tweets per twenty (TPT)

TPT

TPT (Tweets per twenty seconds) – possibly a new measure of vanity or scale of interest.

I first took heed of the “xx tweets since you started searching” when watching Obama’s State Of The Union #SOTU, Jan 27 2010. I noticed it previously as a sidenote on other occasions, like when the #iPad was launched. So when the Oscars rolled by on Mar 7 2010, I decided to do some rough tracking of the volume of interest of the broader topic, the Oscars, but also what got people tweeting, which peaked at 3,000 tweets/20sec, for the Best Picture award. By comparison, State Of The Union address averaged 300TPT.
