@Google’s first tweet on Twitter was: “I’m feeling lucky”. (But they didn't write it like that, instead they wrote, "I’m 01100110 01100101 01100101 01101100 01101001 01101110 01100111 00100000 01101100 01110101 01100011 01101011 01111001 00001010” which means the same in binary.)

A team at Harvard have found that most people only ever "tweet on Twitter" once during their lifetime. (They also found that more than half of all people using Twitter update their page less than once every 74 days. In fact, 10% of Twitter users generate more than 90% of the content. I haven't had my Tweet yet, because I don't Twitter, I just wouldn't know what on earth to say.)
