More popular Australian (and Kiwi) sport related Facebook fanpages and groups

This entry was posted by Laura on Sunday, 21 November, 2010 at

I’m hoping that I can finally begin to get an accurate idea as to the size of the Australian (and Kiwi) sport community on Facebook based on membership in groups and liking of fan pages. I can’t necessarily get good demographic data out of this because of how Facebook works. (Twitter is better in that regards.) Still, if news stories like Akermanis, Monaghan and the Storm break again, I should have total membership that is more recent. woot woot.

That said, the following is data that I’ve manually data mined so far today. Hopefully some people will find it useful in terms of conceptualizing the size of the Australian (and Kiwi) sport community on Facebook. Yeah, a lot of this is random.
