WhatsApp hits a record
Crazy. This is amazing, WhatsApp zooms to record 64 billion messages in one day. But what was quite amazing is that this announcement came on .... Twitter. Reminder. Facebook bought WhatsApp for 19 billion Dollars. Twitter is worth 27 billion Dollars. So, WhatsApp, owned by Facebook, sends record number of messages and then announces it on Twitter. Got it.
new daily record: 20B messages sent (inbound) and 44B messages received (outbound) by our users = 64B messages handled in just 24 hours.
