Twitter just released this beautiful visualization of "Happy New Year" being tweeted at midnight around the world -- tweets per second. View it in full screen mode for best effect. Epic!

The video above visualizes New Year's Eve Tweet data across the world. The circles get bigger as more Tweets are being sent at that moment, which means it's probably midnight in that timezone. Notice that the circle over Tokyo gets so big it nearly swallows Japan.
