Want to go global? A new eMarketer [report](http://www.emarketer.com/Article/Social-Networking-Reaches-Nearly-One-Four-Around-World/1009976?ref=hypebot.com), says the number of worldwide social network users will climb to 1.73 billion this  
year. That means one in four people on the planet will regularly use  
Facebook, Twitter or one of their many competitors.

**More + The Chart**  

The Asia-Pacific region is expected to be the biggest driver of social network  
growth in the next few years, while developed markets such as North America and  
Western Europe are slowly approaching  
saturation. With approximately 777 million users, Asia-Pacific currently has  
the largest social network audience. China  
alone has more social network users than North America and Western  
Europe combined.

  
Until 2015, eMarketer predicts annual double digit growth for social networks  
around the world. By 2017, 2.55 billion or one in three people could be using  
social networks according to the report.
