Social media is changing the world and the proof is in the numbers!

When we write articles, we are often talking about how social media is changing the world from a business perspective. But when we take a step back, we can see just how important social media is on a much grander scale!

This great infographic from MyLife shows how social media has made a dramatic impact on our lives. Perhaps the most interesting piece of data in the infographic is how people aged 50-64 spend roughly 2.4 hours per day on social media websites! That goes to show how this new media has penetrated virtually every market.

Of course, these data can be looked at from a business perspective. It’s easy to look at these numbers and see how social media has an impact on every aspect of our lives – business in particular.
