Some great data points from pingdom.

Five stand out facts for me:

  • #egypt was the number one hashtag on Twitter
  • $50,000 – The amount raised for charity by the most retweeted tweet of 2011.
  • 39 million – The number of Tumblr blogs by the end of 2011 (especially in relation to the next point…)
  • 70 million – Total number of WordPress blogs by the end of 2011.
  • 300 new millions websites in 2011 (how’s your search strategy?)
  • 1 billion – The number of messages sent with WhatsApp during one day (October 2011). (are you on yet?)
  • 100 billion – Estimated number of photos on Facebook by mid-2011.
