The enemy of the facebook Google+ is now crossing big heights
Google’s social network, Google+, might be one of the fastest-growing networks ever, having already reached 10 million users according to one estimate.
Paul Allen, of Ancestry.com – not to be confused with Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen – has developed an interesting methodology to calculate the number of Google+ members.
He
sampled a number of surnames from the U.S. Census Bureau data and
compared it to surnames of Google+ users. By comparing surname
popularity in the U.S. with the number of users on Google+ with each
surname, he can guesstimate the percentage of the U.S. population that
signed up for Google+. Finally, he calculated a ratio of U.S. to
non-U.S. users to generate an estimate for the number of Google+ users
worldwide.
The result? According to Allen’s estimates, Google+ has
approximately 9.5 million users worldwide, with 2.2 million joining in
the past 32 to 34 hours.
This is amazing growth even for a giant
such as Google: We cannot remember any social network reaching so many
members so quickly after its release.
Coming from a third party,
the data is obviously unofficial (we asked Google for comment on these
numbers, but haven’t yet heard from them) and should be taken with a
grain of salt. If they’re true, though, they indicate that – after so many stumbles – Google might finally be conquering the social networking arena.
