Social Facebook has turned 11 years

The editors of the Droider portal found interesting facts about the most famous social network in the world and thanked Mark Zuckerberg for allowing millions of people to be in touch.

Let's start with dry numbers. As of July 2014, the audience of the social network has about 1.32 billion users. The number is unreal: those visitors who visited the site at least once a month were counted. The number of page views of the site already in October 2011 exceeded 1 trillion. What is the number now may not even know the founding father.

Approximately 810 of millions of people per month, on average, 14 once a day put likes on Facebook using smartphone screens. This is probably due to the work of 800 000 developers who are entrusted with mobile applications of the social network on different platforms.

According to statistics, every third Facebook user suffers from depression. The reason can be not only bad news, insults and opposing points of view. Strangely enough, you can blame your close friend or girlfriend for constantly having a bad mood, constantly publishing photos from vip parties, shopping or relaxing. Here we should not forget that people on the Internet try to seem better than they are, therefore in the real world a comrade may not be as happy as he wants to appear.

According to statistics, about 600 000 attempts to hack Facebook are committed every day. How many lucky ones managed to do this is unknown, but the story remembers one hacker, who is our compatriot. The attacker somehow managed to get a password database of one and a half million users who later sold 25 dollars for 1000 accounts.

Like many IT corporations, Facebook pays anyone who finds an error or vulnerability in the site’s code. The minimum payout is 500 dollars. For comparison, Twitter pays the entire 140 dollars (as many characters as possible contain one message in the service).
