To some of you, this might be a shock. To the rest of you that prey on poor, unsuspecting girls with webcams... not so surprised.

Apparently 14.5% of all online time is spent on MSN Live Messenger -- 14.5% of 27 billion total hours.

To put it into perspective, the next biggest service is Facebook at at 5.2% with YouTube coming in third at 4.4% (and Google's biggest slice of the online pie.)

One has to wonder if people with Messenger logged in in the background counts towards the total -- I imagine it does. So the totals are probably somewhat skewed -- but in either case, you can find all of the data on the original comScore report. Perhaps most impressive is Facebook's 200% climb in usage since the same time last year!

I spend more time idling on MSN than anything else.

Not so surprised by FB;'s climb. What is surprising is that twitter isnt mentioned since everyone and their momma is on twitter thesedays.

Sometimes I have it running in the background. Even when I'm signed in on XBox Live, it signs me into messenger.
