Facebook Surpasses Google In "Time Spent" On Site Domestically

Yesterday, a new statistic based on comScore data showed that Facebook had officially surpassed Google in terms of time spent off all internet users in the United States. While it’s no doubt a major milestone for Facebook, the implications to Google’s business are negligible since the company measures success based on decreasing the time spent on their site.

In August, U.S. internet users spent 41.1 million minutes on Facebook, which surpassed Google’s 39.8 million minutes.
