Amazing Statistics

Some statistics regarding the spread of social media:
* Facebook now has over a half billion users worldwide; if Facebook were a country, it would be the third most populous behind China and India,   ahead of  USA  At least half of these users check Facebook every 24 hours and approximately 200 million are using their Mobiles or Mobile device to check their account.
* There are 175 million registered Twitter users, and over 95 million "tweets" are posted each day. That is almost 4 million tweets per hour.
* There are more than 24 hours of video uploaded to YouTube  every minute and there are more than 2 billion videos viewed on YouTube every day.
* LinkedIn, the professional networking site, now has over 100 million registered users and there are more than 1 million companies with LinkedIn  pages. Nearly 2 billion people searches were conducted through LinkedIn  in 2010.
