TechCrunch posted some fascinating Comscore stats that show Facebook in the lead as the world’s largest AND fastest growing social network.
In fact, if you look at the stats they published below, they grew by about the same number of visitors as the entire Internet. Does that mean that 80 million new people flocked to the internet in the last year and they were all coming to use Facebook? Well, no, of course not, that would be statistically daft. But since the major news outlets routinely twist and contort stats like that all the time….why the heck not? Ladies and Gentleman: the stats below clearly demonstrate that nearly every new internet user in the last 12 months possibly connected to the internet simply in order to get their own Facebook page. It’s also possible they were connecting simply in order to check on their kids’ Facebook pages.
