Fascinating Deck on Mobile Growth

Every time I find a statistic that illustrates the explosion of technology,  another one comes along and dwarfs it.  This presentation is astounding, particularly b/c it's before the fact rather than after:

A case study highlight:

"Draw Something" (an app) launched in February - 6 weeks ago
 - It's the number #1 app in 79 countries
 - It has been downloaded 20+ million times
 - It generates $100k+ of revenue per day
 - It has 12+ million users a day

On Feb 12th - "Draw Something" users drew 3  drawings per second
On Feb 26th, 333 drawings per second
On March 7th, 1,660 drawings per second
On March 8th, 3,000 drawings per second

It took AOL 9 years to get to 1 million users
It took Facebook 9 months
It took "Draw Something" 9 days

I'm sorry, it doesn't get any cooler than that!
