Sweet tweets as Twitter beats Wall Street revenue targets

Twitter has surpassed Wall Street’s profit and revenue targets
boosting shares in one of the world’s top social media services.

Stocks went up some 11 percent.

User growth, on the other hand, slowed towards the back end of last year, but picked up again in 2015.

Twitter has introduced a number of new features to make its services more attractive and tempt people to spend more time using it.

As of December 2014 the San Francisco based company recorded 288 million monthly users.

It is still a long way off equaling Facebook, the world’s number one social network with 1.39 billion users.
