Facebook Adds 480,000 Users a Day

“Facebook has just updated their statistics page which now reports they have 175 million users. This means Facebook has increased its new user acquisition rate from 450,000 users a day to over 480,000 users a day. As Facebook expands, it continues to increase its growth rate suggesting that the company will easily surpass 300 million by the end of the year if everything goes well.”

From AllFacebook. Amazing fact: 41% of people in Iceland are on Facebook. So if you have a product geared towards Icelanders… Equally interesting is that the US penetration is only 14%. That argues for a lot of future growth. It’s also clear the service has become more a utility like the phone company and the internet itself. In fact, it may rival eBay in creating an online ecosystem that supports hundreds of thousands of businesses and jobs.
