Förra årets megahit inom statistikens kanske sexigaste område, statistik från sociala medier, uppdaterades nyligen med fräscha siffror.

Förra året spreds en video från Socialnomics.net som en löpeld och den visades i alla sammanhang där de icke frälsta skulle övertygas om sociala mediers kraft. Om Fatboy Slim är ett korrekt val av musik har debaterats hett (det verkar som att nejsidan vann) men i slutändan så såg alla i branschen videon.
Statistiken blev gammal och nyligen kom därför en ny version av videon. Den har redan visats över en kvarts miljon gånger:
Dock, från förra versionen av videon har vissa siffror inte uppdaterats utan bara tagits bort.
Mina 21 favoriter från videon:
