Facebook Destroys ‘anti-facebook research’ Princeton

January 28, 2014 By Silvia Johnson

Researchers at Princeton had a field day this week when they said that one of the largest social media sites is headed to doom land. Their reports concluded that Facebook would end up losing about 80% of some of its peak users in just three years from 2015 to 2017. As expected the research report naturally went viral.

Mike Develin Facebook’s data scientist did not take this lightly as he was not prepared to let them have the final word on the issue. To reply to this a tongue- in- cheek response was written by Develin saying that if similar methods were used it would seem that studies would reveal that Princeton was headed for an early exit out of the market and that it would disappear forever. He continued to say that one of the main problems with the report was that Princeton researches did not use the appropriate methods to study the social media. This is because they utilized a tool known as Google Trends to find out how many times individuals searched for the word “Facebook” on the search engine Google over the past several years.
