The U.S. population is enamored with Facebook. The social network ranked as the top Web destination in December 2012, with a 10.8 percent share of total time spent online during the month, according to analytics firm ComScore. ComScore, which today published a white paper on digital trends, found that while Google sites commanded the largest audience in December, 191.4 million people in the U.S. to be exact, Facebook continues to demand the most attention.unblock facebook In addition to edging out Google properties, which collectively managed to garner 10 percent of time online, Facebook also accounted for 5 out of every 6 minutes spent on social sites, or 83 percent of time spent online on social-networking sites.

No. 2 Tumblr barely racked up 6 percent of time on social-networking sites, and Pinterest and Twitter each accounted for less than 2 percent of online social attention in December.
