<p>The Next Web published a very informal survey compiled by Twitter user Axian. It counted the first tweets on December 24 from four different tablets and to no surprise Apple's iPad was by far the favorite with 82% share. The Amazon Kindle came in second with an 11% share, the Nexus was third with 5% and the Surface had a 2% share. Apple does have an advantage since it has Twitter built into iOS while the others don't. I will report other surveys of early post-Christmas usage of tablets and smartphones as I find them.</p><p>Disclosure: My family and I own Apple shares</p><p><a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckjones/2012/12/27/informal-tweet-survey-indicates-ipad-by-far-the-favorite-tablet/">Keep reading...</a></p>
