社交媒体服务的渗透和使用因城市而异。本文旨在比较世界不同城市的Twitter使用情况。我们对15个城市的Twitter活动进行了时间分析。我们的研究包括两个部分：首先，我们创建了15个城市的活动时间图，通过这些时间图可以确定高活动和低活动的时间。其次，我们创建了2012年9月19日至2013年9月25日期间Twitter活动的热图可视化。热图可视化使密集和稀疏活动的时期变得明显，并提供全年活动的快照。
The penetration and use of social media services differs from city to city. This paper is aimed to provide a comparison of the use of Twitter between different cities of the world. We present a temporal analysis of activity on Twitter in 15 cities. Our study consists of two parts: First, we created temporal graphs of the activity in the 15 cities, through which hours of high and low activity could be identified. Second, we created heat map visualizations of the Twitter activities during the period of 19 September 2012-25 September 2013. The heat map visualizations make the periods of intense and sparse activity apparent and provide a snapshot of the activity during the whole year.
