Social Media by the Numbers

I am a huge fan of statistics and numbers for social media-it really puts into perspective the amazing growth we have seen over the past couple of years in the digital arena. Here are a few from Socialnomics that amaze:

• Over 50% of the world’s population is under 30-years-old
• In 10 years over 40 percent of the Fortune 500 will no longer be here
• Facebook tops Google for weekly traffic in the U.S.
• If Facebook were a country it would be the world's third largest and two times the size of the U.S. population
• 1 in 5 divorces are blamed on Facebook
