I thought this article was best at summing up this phenomenal event that's taken place over the weekend.

The media will go on and on using superlatives like 'crushed' and 'Facebook wins' and all that, but as a true marketer you have to look at this objectively.

What happened: Facebook became the most visited 'standalone' site, above Google. By standalone, I mean more people typed in facebook.com into their browsers than 'google.com'.

This in itself is a phenomenal achievement and will definitely be something the FB guys need to be proud about.

Now, I'll leave you to the article. Enjoy. Share. Socialize.
