iPhone Twitition is First Link Ever to Get 10,000 Re-Tweets

by Patrick Altoft on June 15, 2009

Last week Twitter passed what’s probably the most important milestone yet in terms of viral marketing – a single link received over 10,000 re-tweets.

The link was the iPhone twitition on our very own Twitition.com site and actually received 12,809 signatures as well as a lot of additional re-tweets.

The excellent Tweetmeme website is currently reporting 11,571 re-tweets for the AT&T twitition with 5,111 re-tweets for the O2 version.

Only around 10% of visitors to Twitition actually signed the petition which gives you an indication of the sort of traffic Twitter can drive.
