On January 15th, we posted an update to our ongoing series on Facebook Demographics: “3 Million Teens Leave Facebook in 3 Years: The 2014 Facebook Demographic Report”  Over the course of the next 24 hours the world took notice of our little blog post, and we’re still seeing it ripple through the interwebs (and are still fielding plenty of queries from media outlets from all over the world) and drove nearly 250,000 visitors to this lovely little blog.

The post went live at 10:30 am — By 4pm we cracked Reddit’s top 10, with 1700+ comments, after skyrocketing to the top of ‘/technology’.
