Editor's Notes
- #4: “ We've known it for a long time: the web is big. The first Google index in 1998 already had 26 million pages, and by 2000 the Google index reached the one billion mark... (third reveal) (population on planet tie-in) More web pages than people.
- #6: These are numbers stemming entirely from Web browser data in the U.S. That means that you won't be pulling in any international numbers, where most of Facebook's users are now, or data from widgets or third-party applications, which are how many avid Twitter users access the service. That means that it's likely that Twitter's reach is bigger than the numbers indicate – Webpages can be within web pages within pages with widget – like a digital escher painting
