Amazing, isnât it, how microscopic organisms such as cold and flu germs can lay low hulking omnivores like us? Iâve been down with flu for the past two weeks.

Twitter was first called status until the group looked in the dictionary for names and found twitter which fit it perfectly. The original product name was twttr. The project work began on March 21, 2006, when Dorsey published the first Twitter message at 12:50 PM (PST): just setting up my twttr. The prototype for twitter was tested as an internal service for Odeo employees but later launched publically in July 2006.
In comparison, WhatsApp has stated it has 600 million monthly users. Twitter (NYSE: TWTR) has around 271 million monthly users and a market capitalization of $20 billion as of July 2015. Twitter went public in November of 2013, and therefore can be used as a good comparison for the value of Snapchat.
