Hi,

Like Graham said, it'll depend on how heavily you use the service. It
also depends on what you mean by generating money. I'd look at average
revenue per user per quarter and divide by 3 -- so 3ish dollars for
Google, not sure about youtube, but less (facebook is about a dollar per
user per month)
