Facebook accounts for 1/3 of all social networking time

According to the latest comScore data, Facebook has been ranked as the sixth most popular website in the world with 275 million unique users each month. Last week it also reached an important milestone as the number of members grew to 200 milion, globally.

The social network accounts for 4.1 minutes out of every 100 minutes we spend online and accounts for 1/3 of all time spent on social networking sites, an improvement from 12% the previous year.

The stats show that Facebook is a very important site with a huge membership base across the globe, now where are those pesky revenue streams...I´m sure they were around here somewhere?
