So, I spent yet another long day at work, stumbled home exhausted, ate half a box of Wheat Thins, cracked open the laptop to see what the world had been up to while I was being productive, and I was greeted with this:

From "a guy who works at Twitter":
“At any moment, Justin Bieber uses 3% of our infrastructure. Racks of servers are dedicated to him."The way I choose to look at this, really, is this is exactly what Twitter was designed for. It's the Andy Warhol of technology--a perfect engine for regurgitating the zeitgeist. And if all you've got is 140 characters, we shouldn't look for anybody to be summarizing Proust.
