Surprise, Surprise: Oprah reaches 1 Million Twitter followers in 28 days

Oprah did it faster than Ashton Kutcher and racked up 1 million Twitter follows in less than a month. She is now the 8th member to reach a million followers on the popular micro-blogging.

 

And how did she do it? By sending out only 42 tweets.

 

However, there is nothing particularly surprising about this, as the "Oprah effect" has been known to make books skyrocket to the top of bestseller's list almost over night.

 

Meanwhile, Kutcher now has 1.74 million followers and is likely to reach 2 million sometime in the next 10 days. CNN's account has 1.46 million followers.

 

Oprah is one of the service's recommended personalities for new users to follow.
