Facebook Dominates

Saturday The Los Angeles Times reported that Google announced this week that most people visit Facebook than any other website. Facebook served over 570billion page views during April beating every other site on the Web.
This isnt really a big surprise. After all, in our entire Intro to New Media class we talk about how we can barely go a day without checking our Facebook and checking friends status'. And how it connects us with friends and strangers all over the world. Im not too sure how Facebook has kept up and blown other social networking sites out of the water but whatever theyre doing its working.

  1. As you say, Jessica, this is not exactly a surprise. But it is interesting that Facebook's popularity has not been hurt more by the growing privacy controversy. You'd think, at some point, that this issue would cause some users to drift away to other social networking sites.
