Twitter has tweeted an image of Steve Jobs created entirely out of public #thankyousteve tweets that were posted on Twitter in a 4.5-hour period after Steve Jobs’s death.

The image was created by self-confessed “information design nerd” Miguel Rios (who also happens to be an engineer and data visualization specialist at Twitter).

Miguel Rios (@miguelrios) tweets that the visualization was put together in Photoshop and depicts more than 1,000 Tweets with the hashtag #thankyousteve ordered by the number of retweets, from top left to bottom right.

The full size image can be downloaded from Flickr.
