On Monday, 1 Billion People Used Facebook

This will not be a long post. It is being written to share one fact: on Monday, 1 billion people used Facebook. That's 1/7th of the world's population, including people too young, old or poor to be online using, Facebook on a single day. If you still wondered whether or not you need to have a strong presence on Facebook, you have the answer.

"On Monday, 1 in 7 people on Earth used Facebook to connect with their friends and family," Mark Zuckerber wrote. "When we talk about our financials, we use average numbers, but this is different. This was the first time we reached this milestone, and it's just the beginning of connecting the whole world."

It may be the first day that Facebook hit this milestone. It will not be the last.
