How many communications average on the hour?

[ TEXT ]

[archivy]

That depends on the time of day.

[ TEXT ]

[notelegrams]

On the average, not the particular.

[ TEXT ]

[archivy]

Taking into account curse days, the network averages 1.5 posts per hour. Average response depends on the person and their social network, varying between five and forty replies per hour.

I cannot disclose the average of private communications. Why do you ask?
