And how is that different from the way Facebook counts its users? If anything I find using Hangouts a lot more "engaging with Google+" than just clicking the Like button. In other words, every time you press the “Like” button on NFL.com, for example, you’re an “active user” of Facebook. Perhaps you share a Twitter message on your Facebook account? That would make you an active Facebook user, too. Have you ever shared music on Spotify with a friend? You’re an active Facebook user. If you’ve logged into Huffington Post using your Facebook account and left a comment on the site — and your comment was automatically shared on Facebook — you, too, are an “active user” even though you’ve never actually spent any time on facebook.com. http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/02/06/those-millions-on-facebook-some-may-not-actually-visit/ http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/02/06/those-millions-on-fac...
