Wow, means Twitter doubled in tweet volume in just a couple of months!

I guess it depends what you mean by 'quality'. A methodology for determining 'quality' would be awesome, some function of timeliness, authority, context, accuracy. I don't see that quality is correlated with volume though.

I wonder if they could've avoided this mess for API developers using UUIDs instead of integers for tweet ids.
