Citing comScore data, YouTube sales manager Brian Cusack revealed the Google units aspirations toward global domination. According to comScore, YouTube had about 85 million unique visitors in March, which Cusack said makes its population “bigger than the country of France.”

Actually, Cusack said YouTube's population now ranks as the fourth largest population in the world, trailing only China, India and the United Stated, “and we are rapidly catching up to the united States right now.”

No wonder the owners of YouTube â€" Google â€" are so keen on exploring outer space. At the rate they're growing, they'll need some extraterrestrials to sustain their growth goals.
