Facebook Crosses 2 Billion Monthly Users (theverge.com)

Facebook has announced that it now has over 2 billion monthly active users. From a report: That's up from the 1.94 billion total that the company cited as part of its most recent earnings report in May. Mark Zuckerberg shared the news directly, and Fast Company has a story on Facebook's constant efforts to keep pushing growth upward. "It's an honor to be on this journey with you," Zuckerberg wrote. Facebook's other apps are faring well, too: Messenger has over 1.2 billion monthly users and Facebook-owned WhatsApp tallies a similar figure. Twitter, by comparison, has 328 million monthly active users. Instagram has over 700 million.

    People who love to declare that they're not on Facebook annoy me as much as the ones without TVs. Or vegans.

    Oh man, you'd absolutely love talking to me...

    I'm also an atheist, a Mac user, a Nintendo gamer, a "maker" and a 3D-printer owner, by the way. And since I'm also Canadian, I'm sorry if I annoyed you in any way, eh?
