The Pope Now Has 10 Million Followers On Twitter
The Pope joined Twitter on December 12, 2012, and quickly started to rack up followers to his official @Pontifex account, as well as his eight other different language profiles.
Of course, when he first signed up, it was a different Pope writing those tweets – namely, Pope Benedict XVI, who stepped aside in March. His successor, Pope Francis, the first non-European Pope for 1,300 years, has more than lived up to the task, tripling @Pontifex’ total number of followers in six months to more than 10 million.
Well, kinda.
