Founded in 2006, Twitter didn't gain a large following until the SXSW Interactive conference in 2007. In that week alone, tweets on the site jumped from 20,000 a day to 60,000 a day and gained the attention of prominent bloggers and won the festival's Web award.
Many consider their launch at the 2007 SXSW to be the tipping point for their popularity.
