Nice find of infographics! It’s not surprising that the percentage of tweeting is much lower on the weekends, as most people seem to tweet during working hours...

Not sure about the second one down - Flowtown. 10% of users are male, 9% female... so what are the rest?

@ Jennie, it's the percentage that use Twitter of the group studied, so 19% of people they asked use Twitter.

I saw all of these compiled on a US site a couple of days ago.... not sure you have credited them.

@ Tania - I have credited and linked to the source of each infographic posted here. If another site has compiled the same ten, they may have taken them from here.
That said, there are plenty of lists of Twitter infographics all over the web, so there's bound to be some overlap. I'm not claiming to be original here, just presenting the ones I found interesting.

Graham, nice collection of infographics. Particularly helpful when trying to explain to clients a Tweet once a fortnight or once a month (as advised by some SM packages on offer by our competitors) really won't cut the social media mustard. :)
