There are more “mobile” Facebook users than Russians

Yes, the number of Facebook users who use to communicate on this social network really exceeded the population of Russia. Here is a phrase from Wikipedia: “According to Rosstat, the number of the resident population of the Russian Federation as of May 1, 2010 was 141.9 million” ( source ). Now guess how many mobile Facebook users are now? It turns out that there are already 150 million! Such data was reported by the head of the mobile division of Facebook, Eric Tseng.

Interestingly, the number of users of this social network using mobile devices for working and communicating on Facebook at the end of April of this year did not exceed 100 million. And so, in less than three months Facebook users (I beg your pardon for such a term) increased by 50%. This mobile unit works well, so to all.

This trend gives experts the basis for asserting that within six months, the number of mobile Facebook users equals the number of those using the traditional social network through their computer. Let me remind you that recently the number of Facebook users has increased to the level of half a billion people.

The Facebook mobile unit manager mentioned above believes that in a short period of time it is the mobile platform that will become the main one, and the number of mobile users will significantly exceed the number of regular users. Anyway, mobile devices are increasingly socializing, because the developers of software and hardware of all companies are trying their best to keep up with the times. And now we have more and more social.

One of the most popular mobile Facebook services is Facebook Zero, which allows users to easily access their account. It is all the more popular because mobile operators (with which Facebook has agreed) do not charge for traffic from Facebook Zero. This month, this service was launched in the Russian Federation, so perhaps the population of Russia would mostly like to join the ranks of Facebook users? Who knows.

In the meantime, taking this opportunity, I want to say hello to a huge army of Facebook users :-)
