Addicted to social media?

Who loves Facebook the most? Who uses YouTube the most? Let see some curious stats.


When it comes to Facebook America is the top market with 154,573,340 users. Surprisingly, or not, N.2, N.3 and N.4 spots are taken by Indonesia, India and Turkey respectively with approximately 40, 35 and 30 million users.
What population tweets the most? Again plenty of surprises here. The Dutch are leading since 22.3% of the population uses Twitter. In second position we find Brazil at 21.8, third position Venezuela at 21.1 and in fourth we have Japan with 20%.
And in Japan are also the most blog addicted as the average blog visitor spends 62.2 minutes reading a blog, follow South Korea with 49.6 minutes, Poland with 47.7 minutes and Indonesia with 33.1 minutes.
And lastly YouTube. An amazing statistic itself is that 71% of internet users visit YouTube each month. The Germans watch just over 19 hours of online video each month, closely followed by Turkey, Spain and USA with 18, 17 and 16 hours each.
The top two internet addicted countries however are Canada with 2,500 minutes online a month, totaling almost 42 hours, and Israel with an average of around 2,300 minutes.

    I'm amazed by those statistics for Twitter: I can't see why so many individuals have it..I mean...who follows these people and reads that they just had their lunch? And can't you just do that with your Facebook status?

    Fascinating stuff....thanks...any stats for Oman/GCC?

    Hey Lino, in a way i understand you; in my opinion Twitter is like sending an SMS to the whole world. Just like everything else it can be interesting or boring but if so many people use it on a personal level they must have a good reason. I'm not a big fan myself.

    The estimated number of active Twitter users in the Arab region at the end of March 2011 was 1,150,292. Qatar, Bahrain, the UAE and Kuwait are the most active.
    In Oman I'd say we have about 500 active users. Have a look at this for more details: http://www.oman-collective-intelligence.com/2010/11/twitter-in-oman-why-do-we-use-it.html
