Facebook to reach One Billion users in September

Chart-of-the-day-facebook-will-have-one-billion-users-by-september

Facebook says it has 800 million active users.  

Building a chart based on previous user number announcements, iCrossings says Facebook will probably reach 1 billion users sometime in August 2012. 

In the past, "active" has meant that these people log in once a month. What's truly stunning is that Facebook says more than 50% of its users log in every day.

Video: 'Liquid and linked' - Coke's Wendy Clark at Ad Age Digital Conference

An interesting video and insight into one of the biggest brands in the world.

Take outs:
  • "liquid" because the market landscape is constantly changing, and "linked" because no matter which media are used (or how), all brand messages should adhere to the overall strategy.
  • "A 'like' is important," she said. "A 'share' is more important. We have to hold ourselves accountable for creating content that is sharable."
  • "Everything communicates,": Use the assets already in the business - with a need for creativity in using owned media, citing Coca-Cola's use of increasingly smart vending machines, its fleet of delivery trucks and Coca-Cola cans themselves over the years.

Found: Super Bowl Sets All-Time Sports Tweet Record

Tpscopy

The Super Bowl XLV showdown between the Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers set more than just an all-time TV ratings record. No, Green Bay’s taut 31-25 victory over Pittsburgh was also the most tweeted sporting event of all-time.

To be precise, at 10:07:16 Eastern Standard Time, Twitter users were sending out some 4,064 tweets per second, which shattered the previous record held by Japan’s 3-1 win over Denmark during last summer’s World Cup in South Africa. But more than that, global Twitter usage actually broke that recordsix times during Sunday’s contest.

Found: What the Tweet

Transparency
"Where the Stuff on the Internet Comes From
Every day, thousands of stories are passed around the internet on blogs and via Twitter. A new study by Journalism.org has examined the source of those stories. It turns out, most of them come from old-school media. We may like to share information via Twitter, but the information we share comes from the morning's newspaper."
