Here’s the chart of tweets per minute (TPM) during the speech and until the end of the Republican response (click to enlarge):
The chart shows the overall volume like this:
2012: 766,681 tweets
2013: 1.36 million tweets
Top Moments: Middle Class, Gun Control & Education
The chart shows top moments this year as follows:
24,000 TPM: happened at 9:52pm ET, in response to middle class opportunities & minimum wage

Last year’s peak moment was Obama’s “spilled milk” joke with 14,100 TPM.
Also, Senator Marco Rubio sipping from a bottle of water during his response was noteworthy as the top post-speech moment, pulling 9,200 TPM.
Twitter has also posted the stats on its blog along with a few other notable tweets, such as Rubio poking fun at his own sip of water:
