Fantastic source of Facebook demographic and geographic data
Yesterday I was searching for some data about the geographic and demographic differences in Facebook users. I found the perfect source. The O’Reilly Radar Slideshare document titled: “Demographics: Trends April 2009”.
Everything you ever wanted to know. If anybody knows of a more recent source of data then please post a comment. Looks to me like Europe is lagging well behind the US in the uptake of Facebook by the older demographic. Dick Stroud

P&G's Alan Lafley: Look to the meaningful "outside".
The Consumer as Boss and Laboratory. For nine years, from 2000 to mid-2009, A.G. Lafley served as chairman of Cincinnati-based Procter & Gamble. Lafley got the CEO job when he got it--in June 2000--in large part because the company was experiencing downturns, and stock price fluctuations, seldom seen in its 163-year history.
During his watch, however, P&G doubled it sales, and grew its line of billion-dollar brands from 10 to 23. Some say the even-keeled and reflective Lafley elevated P&G's "art of the customer" to new levels.
What is brand loyalty? What "moments of truth" lead a housewife, grocery chain, or government buyer to prefer Tide, Pampers, Crest or Pringles over competing brands? Who, exactly, are our customers? Why do they buy from us? When is price not so important?
In May of 2009, and just before he stepped down as CEO, Lafley wrote "What Only the CEO Can Do" in the Harvard Business Review. Here's an excerpt, in which Lafley quotes the consultant-writer Peter Drucker (1909-2005) in comments Drucker made in 2004:
"Inside there are only costs. Results are only on the outside."
The CEO alone experiences the meaningful outside at an enterprise level and is responsible for understanding it, interpreting it, advocating for it, and presenting it so that the company can respond in a way that enables sustainable sales, profit, and total shareholder return growth.
