Notes from Zuckerberg Keynote:
Facebook is growing 3% per week, which is 100,000 new users per day.
The fastest growing demographic is the 25 and up age group.
50% of registered users come back to the site every day.
Talking about how Facebook opened up registrations last year, and launched News Feed.
Facebook is generating more than 40 billion page views per month. That’s 50 pages per user every day.
6th most trafficked site in the U.S.
More page views than eBay. Says they are targeting Google next.
Applications: photos, groups, events. Plug into profiles. Use all the real connections people have
Their photos app is by far the number one photo site on the internet.
Events: similar story. 3x more ppeople invited to events thru facebook than evite.
Says these apps work so well because of the “social graph” - a network of connections through which people share information with friends.
The news feed feature in particular allows information to be pushed out through the social network to more people, faster than any time in history.
Deep intergation, significant freedom to monetize via ads and transactions.
