It’s funny how no one is ever really an expert with social media and online marketing. The playing field keeps changing and it keeps getting more interesting.

So far, some interesting fact’s I’ve gotten, while barely 1/4 of the way through this, is that:

• 70% of internet growth in the coming years will come from video
• There are 2 Million emails sent every second
• Bandwidth for 20 homes will generate more traffic than the entire internet in 1995
• The Philippines leads the world in number of internet users who view online videos
  • Phil – 98.1%
  • Brazil 93%
  • China 89.1%
• There are 1 Billion SMS (text) messages sent per day in the Philippines
• 50% of active users in Facebook log in daily

Anyway, I’ll write another post later on with new info after I get them.
