At a Glance: Google+ The World
Google’s social networking platform, Google+, is quickly growing, hitting the 62 million user mark just about a month ago. Estimates have told that number is looking to grow by 625,000 fresh users each day. Paul Allen, founder of Ancestry.com, wrote about explanations for the quick jump, “It may be the holidays, the TV commercials, the Android 4 signups, celebrity and brand appeal, or positive word of mouth or a combination of all these factors, but there is no question that the number of new users signing up for Google+ each day has accelerated markedly in the past several weeks.” Though they have yet to top their week end high of 15,000,000 visits on September 24, they are getting ever closer, hitting 9.4 million the week ending of December 17. Going right along with this increase, the amount of ”Google+ers”is expected to hit 100 million near the close of February, 200 million by the beginning of August, and then nearly 300 million by the end of next year.
