Twitter, Meme and Jaiku
Yahoo silently launched meme recently. It is pretty nice. But can it beat twitter?
Interesting enough, meme launch drew a lot of Chinese users’ interest in Google’s microblogging and they found Google acquired a twitter like microblogging service Jaiku in Oct 2007, when we were busy with yahoo answers. We even did not notice twitter at the time.

Almost two years have passed. Let’s see their growth.
Twitter is now the 13th largest traffic site in the world by today (rank 15 in 3 month average). It occupies 3.75% of global Internet users. The following chart shows the increase of this user reach over the past 2 years.
Then what about jaiku in the past 2 years. It almost has no growth. Traffic rank is 19648 in the world.
