I don't think I've ever heard of such growth. What new monster of virality did they cook up?

In my experience, the mom blogs are probably the most active (and interesting) part of the blogosphere.
I think this whole gender is wildly underserved, but especially mothers with kids 18 and under...there's huge money to be made building services/communites around these specific needs. BlogHer, etc, is good but just the tip of the iceberg.

Another similar demo is teachers. Trying to "reinvent education" is great but the the meantime millions of teachers and millions more students are underserved and struggling.

Facebook apps. But I doubt they'll be as effective with facebook's relatively new layout.
The TC commenters (yeah, I know) are calling bullshit on the growth numbers.

Oh, is it 850k FB app users? I thought they meant actual users of their site.

Should have clarified: according to them it's actual site users, but their FB apps are what drove the growth.
I can't believe I'm writing this, but I tend to agree with the sentiment reflected in the TC comments: something isn't right.
How can a site with so many users be dead everywhere else?
