Socialnomics: Social Media Revolution

Finally managed to settle in a bit with my new job and finally had time over the weekend to update my blog. I always had interest on social media and am amazed at the amount of time I spend every day on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube….really cannot imagine life with out these social media. Gosh what is happening to me….

Social Media is here to stay…like it or not, and for those folks that are still in a state of denial, this revolution is going to happen, whether you are in it or not. Everyday, more and more businesses are embracing the social media as they realise that they can no longer stay out of it, as the conversation is taking place whether they participate in it or not and people are talking about their brand – so they better take charge while they can.

Here are some interesting fact about the social media revolution:

  • 96% of Gen Y would have joined a social network by 2010
  • Social Media has overtaken porn as the #1 activity on the web
  • If Facebook was a country, it would be the world’s 4th largest
  • 80% of Twitter usage was on a mobile devices
