Facebook Ceo,Mark Zuckerberg announces that site hits 1billion users

Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg hardly uses his own site to make announcements, at least not as much as most of us. But the few times he does, it usually makes the news. The young billionaire announced that he had gotten married in a private ceremony some months ago on Facebook by simply changing his status from Single to Married. And today, he announced on his wall that the social networking site has hit a total of one billion users using it actively each month. This means 1/7th of the world’s population uses Facebook.

Co-founder and chief executive Mark Zuckerberg made the announcement, saying the number is “humbling.”

“This morning, there are more than one billion people using Facebook actively each month,” he said in a statement.

“If you’re reading this: thank you for giving me and my little team the honor of serving you. Helping a billion people connect is amazing, humbling and by far the thing I am most proud of in my life.”
