Back in April, Facebook crossed the 200 million active users mark. That number has now gone well over 225 million.

Now, Facebook Facebook Revenue to Top $500 Million in 2009 board member Marc Andreessen says that Facebook will have revenue of at least $500 million in 2009.  Furthermore, he thinks the company will be making billions of dollars in sales within the next five years.

The current Facebook philosophy seems to be that, for now, getting more users is more important than increasing ad sales.

Remember, it's only been about 12 weeks since Facebook hit the 200 million user milestone, so they must be registering hundreds of thousands of new users daily.

This much is certain.  Facebook is unstoppable...for now.
