Facebook Logo Facebook has doubled in size in the last year, boasting a whopping 350 million registered users, and what’s even more impressive is that fully half of them-175 million-log on everyday. By this summer it’s predicted that over half of all Internet users will visit Facebook.

Last year Facebook’s COO Sheryl Sandberg said they were working towards lifting the current 5,000 friend limitation that’s currently in place, possibly anticipating the current popularity of the site, but it hasn’t happened and honestly, that’s not a bad thing. Who on earth really wants thousands of Facebook friends? It would make for an out of control newsfeed and make the personal connections that make Facebook so great next to impossible.

Are you on Facebook? Do log on everyday? Consider yourself an addict? I admit I love Facebook and I do log on everyday, several times a day. I also have the BlackBerry app and the iPhone/iPod Touch app. I network with colleagues, hang out with friends and connect with far flung family members. Facebook has become an important part of my life.
