Facebook Mobile Use

During 2009 Facebook’s mobile usage has grown from 20 million to 65 million monthly active users.

Google has reported 5-fold mobile search volume growth during the last two years. In contrast, if Facebook’s mobile usage continued it’s stellar growth, Facebook would have 420 million mobile users at the end of 2010, 23-fold increase in two years. Of course, this won’t happen. Growth has to slow down, as the total amount of Facebook users just flew past 325 million monthly actives.
