That is mind-blowing. 2 billion total users an immense volume in and of itself but 2 billion even semi active users is incredible

  Google's profile counts -- Android, Gmail, Youtube, and G+, mostly, in about that order, topped 3 billion a while ago. http://archive.is/zi4Uw http://archive.is/zi4Uw (Origin site appears down.)

    I have at least two Google accounts and a very old never-really-used Youtube account (from the days before it was a Google account), so it's very appropriate that you say "profile count" rather than "user count".

      I'm quite aware of that, but yes, that's a crucial distinction. Point being that very large user account collections do exist.
  • majani 9y ago
    Only active users should be counted.

      An upstream comment menttioned total accounts. I've some awareness of G+ active users. https://ello.co/dredmorbius/post/naya9wqdemiovuvwvoyquq https://ello.co/dredmorbius/post/naya9wqdemiovuvwvoyquq There may also be other concerns or interests. https://www.reddit.com/r/dredmorbius/comments/3hp41w/tracking_the_conversation_fp_global_100_thinkers/ https://www.reddit.com/r/dredmorbius/comments/3hp41w/trackin...
