‘YouTube Now Has One Billion Monthly Users’ – ‘Mashable’

Stan Schroeder says, “We all know YouTube is the biggest video sharing site around, but how big is it, exactly, when compared to sites such as Facebook or Twitter? Here’s a hint: YouTube has just hit one billion monthly unique users.

For comparison, Facebook hit that milestone in October 2012. It took the social network eight years to reach one billion active users — almost the exact amount of time as YouTube, which was founded in February 2005. Twitter, which has been around since March 2006, has more than 200 million monthly active users”.
