The number of texts sent and received every day exceeds the Earth`s population!
It took radio 38 years to reach 50 million people, yet Facebook added 100
million users in less than 9 months! If Facebook were a country, it would be the
fourth largest country in the world, after the U.S. Ashton Kutcher and Ellen
DeGeneres have more Twitter followers than the entire population of Ireland,
Norway and Panama! These astounding facts were published recently in the YouTube
video, "The Social Media Revolution". The world of social media is exploding,
bringing people to people and businesses to people in a way never before
imagined; and it`s having a profound effect!

Social media is no longer a casual social interaction. Businesses nationwide are
jumping into the arena, not merely to gain the ear and attention of their
constituents and clients, but more importantly, to create one-on-one
relationships with the public at large. Niche Focus Group is a communications
agency in Phoenix, Arizona that has extended its general advertising/public
relations to include social media services. Troy Bohlke, the owner and founder
of Niche Focus Group states, "Through all of my years of marketing I have never
seen the velocity in market speed of social media."
