Check Out Twitter's Tiny Usage Relative To Facebook

Twitter reported earnings today. The revenue and EPS figures were great, but the monthly active user numbers were not.

Twitter said it has 241 million monthly active users, which is only up 9 million from the previous quarter. This has the stock plunging in after hours trading.
