通過對過去一年中用戶活躍時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)及互動(dòng)對象的匿名統(tǒng)計(jì),F(xiàn)acebook得出了2014年“年度回顧”數(shù)據(jù)。
全球熱門話題榜首由“2014年世界杯”摘取,該話題的討論范圍覆蓋了全球200多個(gè)國家。
大數(shù)據(jù)顯示,世界杯舉辦期間,F(xiàn)acebook上有3.5億用戶創(chuàng)造了超過30億的互動(dòng)次數(shù),包含評論、點(diǎn)贊數(shù)及貼文,令“世界杯”一舉成為2014年度Facebook上最熱門的話題。
位居第二名的則是備受關(guān)注的公共衛(wèi)生議題“埃博拉疫情”。緊隨其后的則是“巴西大選”,這也高度反映出Facebook嚴(yán)肅的一面。Facebook創(chuàng)始人馬克·扎克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)捐贈(zèng)了2500萬美元(約合1600萬英鎊),幫助緩解疫情。而巴西方面在大選期間,4800萬公民創(chuàng)造了674次的話題互動(dòng),助“巴西大選”入圍年度熱門話題榜。

榮登全球最熱話題的是“世界杯”,但在英國用戶群中,顯然“蘇格蘭公投”才是今年的輿論焦點(diǎn)。
“冰桶挑戰(zhàn)”稍遜一籌,位列英國年度第二大熱門話題,并且在全球范圍內(nèi)共有1700萬的挑戰(zhàn)視頻。
視頻當(dāng)中,挑戰(zhàn)者需將桶中的冰水澆在自己身上。這一有趣視頻也吸引了網(wǎng)民目光,全球4.4億網(wǎng)民創(chuàng)下了100億的點(diǎn)擊率。
足球相關(guān)話題在英國的榜單中優(yōu)勢明顯,包括世界杯、英超聯(lián)賽、歐冠決賽均位列前十。
Facebook全球用戶中,有超過5億的足球迷。而位列英國話題榜前十和十佳定位點(diǎn)的曼聯(lián)(Manchester United),就有6000萬的粉絲。
與此同時(shí),F(xiàn)acebook方面也統(tǒng)計(jì)出英國今年最熱門的貼文簽到地點(diǎn)——倫敦“華納兄弟工作室”(the Warner Brothers Studio Tour)摘得桂冠,人們在這里體驗(yàn)到了哈利波特系列電影的制作流程,盡情抒發(fā)了自己的感受。其他分別是:杜莎夫人蠟像館(Madame Tussauds )、倫敦塔,與此同時(shí)人們還廣泛討論了“一站”爆發(fā)100周年。 Facebook還統(tǒng)計(jì)了網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲的相關(guān)數(shù)據(jù)。從桌面游戲到手機(jī)游戲,每個(gè)月都會(huì)有超過3.75億的用戶通過登陸Faceboook賬戶來玩游戲。

澳大利亞方面,羅賓·威廉姆斯的自殺位居榜首。隨后則是澳總理托尼·阿博特和馬來西亞航空公司。
“印度大選”毫無疑問成為印度當(dāng)?shù)氐臒狳c(diǎn)話題,第二名則是印度超級聯(lián)賽。墨西哥方面的熱門話題有:世界杯、“華金”販毒集團(tuán)的頭號毒梟被逮捕和教皇弗蘭西斯一世。西甲聯(lián)賽、政治活動(dòng)家巴勃羅·伊格萊西亞斯(Pablo Iglesias)和世界杯是西班牙國內(nèi)的三大熱門話題。
