I found these recent stats indicative of some sort of tipping point:
Nearly 75 Million People Visited Twitter’s Site In January (comScore)
Facebook Now Responsible For Majority Of Web Portal Traffic
“Facebook has outstripped Google Search as the top source of traffic to web portals.”
More stats here:
Facebook Drives 44 Percent Of Social Sharing On The Web
I’d say that’s very interesting to discuss the consequences of this for lbrary web portals. Is your traffic coming from Google search? Is that because you don’t have links from a Facebook page? I kow that nearly all Gale Cengage widgets have the ability to be used in your Facebook presence as well.
