Number Of The Tweet

Therefore I have to wonder why I continue to perpetuate Twitter conspiracy theories upon this world.

You might remember when Australia Liberal leader Malcolm Turnbull (@TurnbullMalcolm) joined Twitter.

At the time I found it amusing that he had 666 followers.

Malcolm Turnbull has 666 followers?

Turns out that Rick Astley is never going to give Twitter up either.

Real Rick Astley

His account (@RealRickAstley) is following… wait for it… how many?

Leave a comment and let me know. Or, hell, follow me on twitter (if you’re into that kind of thing.)
