I know in 2010 this doesn’t seem obvious to everybody but it’s my judgment. A bit laughable in 2010, just 12 years later. So … November 2010 and Facebook has 500 million users.

Interestingly, it looks like the Midas List skipped 2010 and changed methodologies considerably in 2011, so you’d need to wait until 2021 to do a true look back. Since I’m mainly doing this for my own interest and this isn’t supposed to be a scientific analysis, I’m going to instead look at the 2019 list and compare it to the 2009 list.
