Are You Part of the 8th Most Populated "Country"?

I signed up for Facebook the latter part of 2007 I think. I didn't want to join another social/networking site but I was intrigued. I deleted crappy MySpace instead and have not looked back.
This post by the founder is silly interesting. 8th most populated country?!?!??!?!

A Great Start to 2009 by Mark Zuckerberg Wednesday, January 7, 2009 at 4:37am

Today, we reached another milestone: 150 million people around the world are now actively using Facebook and almost half of them are using Facebook every day. This includes people in every continent—even Antarctica. If Facebook were a country, it would be the eighth most populated in the world, just ahead of Japan, Russia and Nigeria.

When we first started Facebook almost five years ago, most of the people using it were college students in the United States. Today, people of all ages—grandparents, parents and children—use Facebook in more than 35 different languages and 170 countries and territories.

The full potential of the web is to make the world more open, so everyone has a voice and can share what is important to them. With 150 million voices and counting, we can't wait for the rest of 2009, and we look forward to offering even more ways for you to connect with the people who matter most.

Also, watch YouTube celebrity Happy Slip's take on this obsession. ANG KULIT! SAKTO!


I'm on Facebook because it's "uso". KkKkK. Ngak. Wait. Well, since I'm overseas, it ultimately is one of the easiest means to stay in touch with everyone all over. It's all in good fun. Just mind your feed/privacy settings and application invites. I don't have time to toss potatoes, want to take care of pet fish or be part of any blood war!!! lol

What's your reason?

I signed up for Facebook. I don't understand it that much. It looks stalkeratti-ish. Kakaintriga.
