Here are some statistics on Facebook and MySpace.  It is amazing how face these sites have grown and continue to grow.  Some highlights I found very interesting:

* More than 65 billion page views per month
* More than half of Facebook users are outside of college
* Over 7,000 applications have been built on Facebook Platform
* 100 new applications added per day
* More than 60 million active users
* An average of 250,000 new registrations per day since Jan. 2007
* More than 14 million photos uploaded daily
* No. 1 photo sharing application on the Web (comScore)
