And about 33 percent of Facebook application makers reported profits of up to $500,000 a month. Finally, at least one-quarter of the applications running on Facebook have 100,000 active daily users.

Looking at adonomics or other Facebook application trackers, you can see that only 50 Facebook applications boost 100,000 and above daily active users. By Chamath’s math, Facebook only has 200 applications! I guess MySpace platform is not doing too bad in retrospect.

In reality, Facebook has some 25,000 applications on it’s platform. and only 0.2% of those have more than 100K daily visitors. I am just hoping that Chamath was miss-quoted, and that he and his team don’t really think every application on their platform is thriving.

And imagine if 33% of Facebook applications were making half a million in profits every month. That would put the profit of just this 1/3 of applications at around $50 million dollars a year! That should put their revenue in the $150 million range, exactly how much Facebook made in 2007!
