During a press conference dedicated to the purchase of Oculus VR, Mark Zuckerberg said that last week the number of users of the mobile version of the social network reached 1 billion people. 

Moreover, according to Mark, 20% of the total time spent by users on mobile applications is accounted for by using Facebook services. 

Also, the golden boy of Silicon Valley noted that Instagram’s MAU has reached the 200 million mark. Two years ago, when the company acquired the photo service, it had only 20 million users. 

Mark is going to achieve equally impressive results by leading the development of the WhatsApp messenger, which Facebook acquired a month ago for $ 19 billion, and Oculus VR, which it bought yesterday for $ 2 billion.
