The Print Effect

image credit

Ever wondered how much it would take to print your entire Twitter timeline? I'm not much of a Twitterer so the numbers are not very impressive, but nevertheless, to print my entire Twitter timeline it would cover 81,907 A4 pages. It would use 1.6 litres of ink. That's nearly 136 ink cartridges. It would cost about $3,709.

All the printed pages together would weigh 409.5 kg (902.7 pounds). Laid side-by-side, the paper would cover around 5.108.56 square meters (1.97 square miles). Stacked on top of each other, it'd be around 8.19 meters (26.8 feet) tall. Using a single inkjet printer it would take about 2 days, 5 hours, and 56 minutes to print.

Find out how much it would take to print your entire Twitter timeline.
