The Meteoric Rise Of Facebook
Posted on Tuesday, December 8th, 2009 by Ali Johnson
So I am have been reading ‘The Church of Facebook’ recently (will blog about this later I am sure) and am struck by the meteoric rise of Facebook. Its phenomenal to think that this social network platform didn’t exist 5 years ago and now it seems to influence the whole of cultural understanding. This graph tracks the rise that has taken place over that time.
Not sure we have seen as worldwide remarkable ‘community’ growth since, the early church (as I heard someone say).

I suppose it would be wise to question whether Facebook was real community, or an aide to community, or a means for which community to exist.
Maybe that’s a question we can ask about Church?
