Quarter of all Canadians on Facebook

From today’s [December 10, 2007] Toronto Star:
1 in 4 Canadians on Facebook
Close to 8 million Canadians have signed up – 85% in the past year alone, unpublished study reveals

by Chris Sorensen, Business Reporter
Snippets:
“nearly 8 million Canadians – more than one in four – have a Facebook profile page, according to an upcoming study by Toronto-based Solutions Research Group”
“a nearly 15 per cent share of Facebook’s total subscriber base of 57 million.”
“And it’s not just Canadian teens and so-called “tweens” that are using Facebook”
“roughly half of all Canadian Facebook users are over the age of 30.”
“MySpace only has about a quarter as many members as Facebook in Canada, and adoption already appears to have plateaued”
“In the U.S., by contrast, MySpace remains king with some 72 million subscribers, although Facebook is growing at a faster rate.”
Interesting article.
