We’ve all seen eye-popping statistics about the growth of social media. They read like this…
- “If MySpace was a country, it would be the 5th largest in the world.”
- “In 2006 there were 2.7 billion Google searches per month; today, there are 31 billion.”
- “The first commercial text message was sent in December of 1992, now the number of text messages sent every day exceeds the population of the planet.”
