Social Media Bigger Than Porn

Still not sure if your business should be using social media and video marketing?

Socialnomics recently released a video which highlights the staggering statistics on social media usage, supporting the belief that not only is it not a fad but social networking could be the greatest explosion in technological advance amongst the masses since the industrial revolution.

Some interesting stats pulled from the video:

1. Social media has overtaken porn as the #1 activity on the web
2. 25% of Americans in the past month said they watched a short video…on their phone
3. Ashton Kutcher and Ellen Degeneres have more Twitter followers than the entire populations of Ireland, Norway and Panama
4. Facebook USERS translated the site from English to Spanish via a Wiki in less than 4 weeks and cost Facebook $0
5. Successful companies in social media act more like Dale Carnegie and less like David Ogilvy Listening first, selling second
