Want to know why Facebook is still a small company despite having 500 million users? Look no further than this new infographic designed by the team over at JESS3 titled, “The Geosocial Universe”. The graphic illustrates how large of an opportunity the social networks have given that the mobile market reaches approximately 5 billion people. With that in mind, it doesn’t seem unreasonable that Facebook would reach 1 billion people at some point in the near future. Check out the graphic below.

The difference to cellphones is, that people are distributed on hundrets of mobile phone providers. Facebook, on the other hand, is a singular platform. A nice idea would be to enable users of different social platforms to communicate with each other (inter platform communication). This would follow the paradigm of cellphones (It’s possible for me to call a person using a different telecommunication provider). But this doesn’t fit the singularity paradigm of facebook.
