Kablam! 25% Worldwide Growth in Social Network Users



Comscore released a recent press release that demonstrated 25% growth in worldwide users of soc nets, versus just 9% in the US.

Facebook's localization efforts have been faster, according to reports, because they are leveraging team members for translations, etc., while MySpace has taken a more top down country team approach.

Thanks for reading, and don't forget to write.
