When we talk about social networks generally we focus on three of the most recognized worldwide-Facebook, Twitter, Google+ – but not forgotten one of the oldest in the sector: LinkedIn . The network for professionals is not the scope of the previously mentioned nor points to the same users, but that has not stopped him achieve success in his field.
LinkedIn
Hours ago announced his arrival to the 200 million users , a phenomenal number that confirms your good time. Registered accounts are for Internet service from 200 countries, although the United States remains the most widely adopted country with 74 million users. They follow India with 18 million, Brazil and the UK with 11 million each and Canada with 7,000,000.
According to official statistics from January 2011 to December 2012, the countries that grew faster LinkedIn were Turkey, Colombia and Indonesia. Besides the social network access from mobile devices increased significantly in China, Brazil and Portugal, among other countries.
What is striking is that your LinkedIn public outreach has increased dramatically since March 2011, when it reached 100 million users. Until then, the platform has been available for almost 8 years without achieving the desired traction by their managers.

After a long wait Instagram joined Google Android Play Store and the receipt by the user operating system developed in Mountain View could not have been better. According to statistics from the online store the application was downloaded over one million times in its first day .
The arrival of the new version of Instagram took themselves by surprise and strangers. The app appeared without much fanfare but the impact on the public was immediate. Now Android users can capture photos, apply different kinds of filters and share them with the rest of the world. Being the first version of the application was logical to expect some bugs. Luckily the developers solved many of the errors with the patch made available just hours after launching the app. Nevertheless there are still some aspects to improve, such as lack of support for the cameras for some devices. With the advent of Android
Instagram also appeared the controversy . The first to put the fuss was iOS users who basically complained that developers prostituted service experience to open doors to devices with the operating system. Unfortunately in many blogs (especially Americans) reported this idea that Android does not deserve Instagram because cameras are not many devices like the iPhone. Personally I think it’s silly, not only because it conveys disgust the public but also because it loses focus on what really matters. The users of each platform enjoy your app, period.
Instagram developers know what they do .
So many times already stated that Facebook is the most used social network the world and is constantly growing. The site created by Mark Zuckerberg and company has revolutionized the concept of social networking via the web, and for this reason not surprising that add millions of new users regularly.
Hours ago Facebook surpassed it became known that a new brand:
750 million users . The number is bestial, but from the social network does not seem to have given too much importance to this figure. Usually the site substantially altered when large numbers are exceeded, but this time nothing has happened
.
According to data collected in the Facebook web developers are working flat out to deliver a major refurbishment when it comes to 1,000 million users . If growth remains at a regular volume could surely speak of the trademark between the end of this year and early next. An important point to note is that Mark Zuckerberg’s social network does not count number of registered users but the number of active accounts . People who are not logged at least 30 days outside the final count of users, which reinforces our idea of the magnitude of arrival that Facebook has today.
