There are only 185.5 million people in the US on
facebook. That is over half the
population, not bad for a company that didn’t even exist 10 years ago. With the average person spending almost 7
hours a month on facebook that is a lot of screen time for those little ads to
make their way into your brain, and with facebook being a public company now
they have to answer to their shareholders, meaning they have to make money, you
would think a company with over a billion active monthly users would be raking
in the dough, I bet they are. From posts
that used to go to everyone to posts that you can now pay to have seen, there
is a lot of growth for this company in its infancy. I started using facebook kicking and
screaming after learning and loving myspace, weird now I am not even sure if
myspace even exists. The voyeur in me
keeps me looking and the thoughts that plague my mind give me endless topics to
post on here on facebook. Are we better
off now knowing that John had a burger for lunch with his bff? Does it matter that Sally sold seashells by
the seashore, you bet it does, the average person has 130 friends on
facebook. I at one time actually knew
all my facebook friends, and many of my radio friends have two accounts the
work one and the real one, I guess I wasn’t smart enough to do that when I started
with facebook, and now I don’t think I have the time to do more than one
facebook account. I think I like the
sharing that happens here, otherwise where would I catch up on the snarky
thoughts of my friends, both real and online.
