If Facebook were a country, its population would rival the single most populous country on Earth. Glad I'm the FIRST Nigerian on it in 2004 after Andy McCollum recruited me as a beta tester #History
That’s one eye-popping takeaway from Facebook’s Q3 earnings reportTuesday, in which the site announced that its monthly active users cleared 1.35 billion — roughly equal the population of China, and 9 percent larger than that of India.
By these numbers, nearly 20 percent of the world’s population logs into Facebook once a month. And if we just look at the world’s Internet users, roughly half of them — every other person with Internet on the planet — use the site actively.
