新华网8月1日电 据美国科技博客Gizmodo报道,美国社交网站脸谱网正在缓慢稳步占据全球社交网站主导地位。

上个月一项覆盖137个国家的调查显示,马克·扎克伯格的社交网络帝国已经在127个国家统领社交网站。

此外,该调查显示了脸谱网的地位从三年前到今天的巨大飞跃。脸谱网在2009年的范围基本无法覆盖完整的大陆,在亚洲国家几乎不存在,现在却超过了Orkut(注:谷歌推出的社交网站,曾经大受巴西和印度年轻人欢迎)。

依照这个速度来看,拥有12亿月度活跃用户的脸谱网在全球扩展更广泛的势力只是时间问题。毕竟,每个风险游戏都有最终结局。

Watch Facebook's Slow Creep Toward Total World Domination

Slowly but surely, the Facebook singularity approacheth. As of last month, Zuck's Empire can proudly call itself the reigning social network in 127 out of 137 polled countries. That's a lot of selfie uploads.

What's more, this a huge leap from where Facebook ranked just three years ago. As you can see below, it could barely hold onto a full continent and was nearly nonexistant in Asian countries. Now, Facebook's even overtaken Orkut, the once (relatively) hyper-popular social network for Brazilian and Indian tweens everywhere. Qzone is, of course, still dominating in China, whose people have to make do with their own version of popular sites in the notoriously internet restrictive country.

At this rate and with Facebook's 1.2 billion active monthly users, it's only a matter of time before we're seeing a map full of Facebook brand blue. Every game of Risk has to end at some point, after all. [Vincos Blog via Digg]
