Justin Bieber attracts so many visitors to Twitter that the site has racks of servers dedicated simply to helping meet demand.
With more than five million followers, the 16-year-old star uses a significant proportion of the global social networking site’s resources, meaning the Baby singer has to have special systems in place to cope with demand,
Digital Spy reported. Dustin Curtis, a designer for Twitter, tweeted: "At any moment, Justin Bieber uses three per cent of our infrastructure. Racks of servers are dedicated to him." He added that three things can be guaranteed to drive Twitter traffic up: "(a) bashing airlines, (b) bashing Comic Sans, (c) Justin Bieber".
Now, that must be cool to say during dinner parties that your so freaking popular that the social network your on has to add more servers because I am so popular.
