Social Media Day

Who isn't on social media nowadays?  According to brandwatch.com as of July 2015 there were 2.3-billion active social media users out of the worldwide population of 7.3-billion.  I'm sure these numbers have increased tremendously, the last two years.

If Facebook was a state with 1.71-billion users, it will outrank China's 1.3-billion and India's 1.2-billion population.  The 4th placer would be YouTube with more than 1-billion users.  The United States of America (3rd rank in world population) with it's 312-million plus population would be no match to Instagram's more than 400-million users.  Such is the power and reach of social media.  Facebook, founded in February 2004, is just 13 years old, while YouTube is 12 years old, and Instagram is only 7 years old.

And I believe that there will be more and better applications coming soon in the near future.
