Facebook Users by Country, 2010


US topped the users ranking, with almost 50% population using FB. Being the 4th most populated country, Indonesia comes in second, but with 4x users less than US. In a way, we could see how close Indonesia resembling US in using technology.

However, the two most populated countries - China & India are both out of picture. While facebook is blocked in China, India is way behind in the usage, where it sees only 1.5% of population using it. 1.5%!? It does reflect the lack of infrastructure in connecting the people to WWW. On other hand, it is a political barrier in distance the Chinese to WWW.

While there is so much talk about how flat the world is, it is still a long way before it comes to reality.
