facebook



The world's biggest waste of time?

Facebook is developing new applications that will take advantage of the geo-location abilities of some of the latest mobile devices. And there will also be more for users who do not have data on their mobile devices.
With India a fast growing market for Facebook, the product endorsed (indirectly) by Mahendra Singh Dhoni in an advert and with a growing retinue of users, expect more from the world's largest social network soon.
  • Everyday, people spend five billion minutes on Facebook, making it one of the top three properties on the Internet (there are 525,600 minutes in a year).
  • Over 125 million people visit the Facebook site every month.
  • Of that, 65 million people access the site on their mobile devices using either dedicated applications (BlackBerry, iPhone, Nokia N97) or the mobile website (http://m.facebook.com).
  • There are an estimated 4.5 million Facebook users in India alone and India is one of the site's fastest growing geographies.
  • Facebook is developing new applications for people with regular mobile devices to connect on the site minus a data connection such as Facebook on SMS available at 9232232665 (92-FACEBOOK) in India.
