I was in a meeting last week meeting my favorite clients, pitching ideas for 2009, when someone in the room raised the question that’s on everyone’s lips: who’s really on Facebook?
To be honest, I hadn’t updated my numbers in a while (yes, a couple of months on Facebook is like a century in real life) so I had to do a bit of research. I’ve found Matt Dickman’s The Face of Facebook ebook, a very complete report updated a couple of weeks ago with the latest data. I’ve compiled the 2 main graphics, resulting in the chart above.
PS: drop me a line if you want the hi-res PDF of the chart.

Olivier — This is fabulous. I like your charts much more than my own. I am keeping the numbers up to date, so make sure to check back.
Thanks Matt! And thanks for putting together all those numbers!
thanks matt & olivier for this info, very helpful!
p.s. i just added trendwatch rss feed to my reader but i think there is something wrong with the feed. it says no updated items and is showing things from 2007…
This is a very enlightening chart and I would like a pdf. Have you done similar research on Youtube and MySpace?
Hi
Thanks for the data. Would you have any inputs on facebook and non US population ?
Esp in India ?
thanks !
Thanks Amy, Gary and Niranjan.
