After a huge rush of success at its birth, the social networking website Twitter is seeing substantially less tweets as time goes on for US users. According to an article at eMarketer following spectacular initial growth, fall 2009 is proving to be a difficult time for Twitter. Although it has not been unusual to see changes in the amount of traffic Twitter gains, one thing remains plain to see: traffic to the Twitter.com website is declining month over month after a period of huge gains. According to data provided to eMarketer by Nielsen, traffic to Twitter.com was down a substantial 27.8% between September and October 2009, falling to 18.9 million unique visitors.
