Myspace got about half the number of mobile visits as Facebook, with 11.4 million users. The number of people who accessed Myspace on their mobile phone actually dropped compared to January of 2009, when they got visits from 12.3 million people. Facebook surpassed Myspace’s mobile browser audience size in February of 2009, 3 months before it overtook Myspace’s visits via personal computers.

A big reason for such a huge increase is the increased popularity of smartphones like the Droid, iPhone and Blackberry. 30.8% of smartphone owners accessed social media sites with their phones in January compared to just 6.8% of people using feature phones.

comScore says that the real number of people accessing social networking sites on their phones is actually even higher. This is because their figures do not include data from the 6 million people using mobile applications to get on social media sites; It only includes data of people accessing the sites with a mobile web browser.

Chrome isn’t the only thing those geniuses over at Google can tout. Just yesterday Google had a small text ad on their home page for the Nexus One phone, the new Android phone from Google. The fact that Google can advertise their products for free on prime internet real estate exemplifies how powerful Google has become. Now with this phone out, as well as Motorola’s Droid, Google keeps furthering its reach into the cell phone market.

Finally, a poll by Mashable found that 70% of those who interacted with the poll prefer Google’s Gmail over Microsoft’s Outlook. Although that really doesn’t say much, especially considering the tech-savvy audience Mashable appeals to, it is just another statistic leaning the way of Google.

The question now is What will Google reach it’s hands into next? Share your thoughts.
