    yeah.. so many ppl use twitter now..

  5. Twitter is fastest growing by percentages (since it is small and has substantial growth) but FaceBook is fastest growing by the actual number of users. FaceBook’s percentage of growth is low because it is already so big.

    FaceBook is the clear winner, and it continues to increase its lead.
