A World of Tweets (AWOT)

Wouldn't it be nice to know where the world’s tweets come from? Wouldn't it be nice to get a more global idea of tweeting? And, wouldn't it be nice to have this all in real-time? Well, here it is – a cool geographical insight into the world of tweets.

Quite simply, this is a site which combines the geographical location of global tweets and various snippets of information. Real-time data is constantly being gathered and updated to portray a visual map of the Twitter hotspots around the world.

Continuously Updating

The interesting aspect about of all this is the fact that it continues to change and update. It provides a striking view where the majority of tweets are sprouting from at any given time. Link this with the 'headline of the day' and we can all conclude certain data and enables us all to obtain insights into online media consumption in real time.

Hot spots

As people tweet, we can immediately see where the majority of tweets are happening -the more tweets there are from a specific region, the 'hotter' it becomes (or redder). You can also customize the map changing from a satellite view to clusters of ‘smoky clouds’. Amazingly, there is even an option that allows the map to be streamed in 3D – for those with 3D glasses.

Try it and visit a world of tweets website, or follow on twitter @aworldoftweets.
