  • #4 If Facebook Were A Country, It Would Be The 3rd Most PopulatedNever in the history of the world where some of the people who belong not only to the 2nd most populated country in the world but the 3rd as well.Visa -> Anyone with a browser device and internet access can become a citizen
  • #5 When I looked at this statistics I felt that here Facebook may have overtaken IndiaAlso then I realized many of the people who are active on Facebook are Indians -> 46 million monthly active users/ monthYou never know – Politcians
  • #6 A good news for all the men.The only country where the ratio is 1:1.5Fake profilesBut the good news it provides a platform for women to express themselves without censorship.
  • #8 Heaven for gossipers and socialites.Quick instant sharing news.Quick updates from friends, families and crushes.“Facebook upload phenomenon” -> People click photos not for memories but to share
  • #9 How many of you do this?I do this.I never realized how much of an importance I gave to Facebook till we did this presentation.Well this presentation is mainly for all those have risen their hands.Scary.
  • #10 Well if you had answered yes you may be a Facebook addict.A lot of your decisions everyday may be centered around Facebook.So how do you get know if you are an Facebook addict?
