I become the 110,124th follower of @BillGates today and at the time of writing this article Bill Gates had amassed 110,811 followers. In typical newbie fashion and in a way i remember doing my first Java program Bill Gates' first tweet said ""Hello World." Hard at work on my foundation letter - publishing on 1/25." The amazing phenomenon is that his follower count has jumped so quickly today mostly spreading virally.
