The good folks at Mashable have crunched the numbers surrounding microblogging network, Tumblr, and made a nifty little—well, actually, it's big—infographic with a lot of interesting stats. The most interesting is the activity of its ever-growing userbase. Tumblr has grown a staggering 900% over the past year and now has 33,313,876 Tumblrs. According to Mashable's findings that growth has been spurred by a small segment of users called "Addicts". This group makes up 2% of the entire base. The other half is made up by "Regulars", people who visit Tumblr between 1 and 30 times per month.
It was reported earlier this year that Twitter had a similar percentage of users vs. activity. Studies showed that 5% of Twitter's users made up around 75% of all the network's activity. It's safe to say every social network has a subset of members that way more fanatical than the majority of users. That's just the way it is.
