[Mwathi Francis]

For all of you facebook users, this may interest you.

Facebook has announced that it now has 300 million members making it the
world's most popular social networking site. Mark Zuckerberg,
Facebook's founder, announced the news in a blogpost, and confirmed
that the company was now cash-flow positive, generating revenue
independently of third-party investment and funding.

Facebook has enjoyed a rapid period of growth in the last two months,
going from 250 million users in July to 300 million in September. The
social networking site is still steadily adding users in major
markets, such as Britain and the United States, and is also making
inroads in to other territories. The recent launch of Facebook Lite, a
stripped-down basic version of the site for users with slow internet
connections, hopes to boost membership  numbers in areas such as
India, South America and Africa .
