Google+ will have 400 mn users by the end of 2012, predicts a Google statistician

 An unofficial Google statistician, Paul Allen, has predicted that Google+ will cross 400 million user base by the end of 2012. The social network already has 62 million users and adds 6,25,000 new users on a daily basis. “It may be the holidays, the TV commercials, the Android 4 signups, celebrity and brand appeal or a combination of all these factors but there is no question that the number of new users signing up for Google+ each day has accelerated markedly in the past several weeks” wrote Paul Allen in his report. 



Since 700,000 Android devices are being activated daily, these new activations will become a very significant source of new users for Google+. If this rate of new signups (625k daily) continues then Google+ would reach 100 million users by the end of February next year and might also register a user base of 200 million by August 2012.
