Facebook Network Popularity Map

most%20popular%20facebook%20networks.jpgYou think you're huge on Facebook? Well, maybe so, but are you just a big fish in a small pond? (Or perhaps you're just a rather sordid person.) Our sib site Valleywag directed us to a deceased Facebook application that tracked the number of members in the world's most populous Facebook networks. We've assembled a map of the top 50 Facebook networks worldwide, so even if you're popular, you can now determine just how popular your popularity is. You may share our shock that Canada basically dominates the Facebookoverse. Must be lonely in the frigid northlands — a fact proven by Norway's stellar showing as well. Hit the jump and whip it out, social networking wise.
