Farmvillie is one of the most popular game in Facebook. The game, developed by Zynga, has more than 69 million active users.
The game as the name suggests allow Facebook users to farm; plough, seed, harvest along with rearing trees and animals, and own houses and decorations. It becomes addictive when users play it with their friends and try to level up and put their creativity in arranging and decorating their farms.
Micro-blogging site Twitter does not give directly comparable figures, but data from research firm Nielsen said traffic fell 27.8% between September and October to 18.9 million unique visitors.
Facebook’s strategy head Trevor Johnson told TechRadar, “Applications make up a huge part of Facebook. There are over 90,000 applications on Facebook.
“Sixty-nine million active users are using FarmVille alone, that’s more users than Twitter.”
There has been speculation about the impact of the rapid growth of Facebook’s upstart rival Twitter on its user numbers.
But Facebook as a whole, according to founder Mark Zuckerberg, has 350 million users around the world.
The site said that worldwide it was achieving 200 billion page views a month, with 1.6 billion messages are sent daily through its chat tool.
In the UK, Facebook said it had 23 million unique users a month, with each of those logging on spending around 25 minutes on the website per day.
