WhatsApp at 19 billion? Was it a foolish move or a masterstroke by Facebook?


If a user base of 450 million is strong, then an addition of 1 million users everyday, I repeat ‘everyday’ is heady stuff! It will be just matter of time for WhatsApp to reach the magic number of one billion users. Why I think Facebook’s move is smart is because of its biz strategy - if you can’t outdo a newcomer, buy him! The other aspect is that mobile is where money will ring better. FB understands it better and hence gets prepared for the mobile future.
