There are a lot of news since last January: Facebook is still the leading social network in 119 out of 149 countries analyzed, but it was stopped in 9 territories by Odnoklassniki, Vkontakte and Linkedin.

L’infographie suivante présente quelques chiffres extraits de cette étude parmi lesquels j’ai retenu particulièrement que plus de 36% des utilisateurs de médias sociaux produisent du contenu (une tendance en forte augmentation) et deviennent ce que l’on appelle des contributeurs actifs. L’évolution de l’usage des réseaux sociaux au Québec est donc dynamique même si le Québec (et le Canada) restent en-deçà des usages que l’on trouve dans les pays émergents.
Voir sur le sujet notre billet « Le Canada en retard dans l’usage des médias sociaux« . Ces chiffres nous donnent un bon portrait de la situation au Québec.
