compete is reporting that facebook, the rising star of social networking sites, is not only ranked number 3 in terms of page views now (and possibly stealing users/visitors away from myspace) but the site’s developer platform is a huge success. a total of 14 million people interacted with facebook applications in august alone.

have a look at the following visualization from compete, depicting the different activities that facebook users engaged in during august.

the size of the circles represents the share of all facebook visitors that engaged in each activity, and the shade of the color represents how much each function was used (dark is more).
