The game, which asks you to sketch objects and pop culture references on your smartphone or tablet for your friends to guess, has become a dominating force on the social graph. In a short time, it has earned the number-one best seller slot in many countries, in both the iOS App Store and Android Market. It has sold 37 million times worldwide, as of this writing, and doesn't show signs of petering out.

MBAOnline took note of Draw Something's incredible growth and came out with a clever animated infographic done in the Draw Something style. It shows that 20 million active users have created 3 billion drawings since the app launched just seven weeks ago.

Draw Something has been a tremendous success for the game's creator, OMGPOP, which was acquired by Zynga for $180 million. OMGPOP said that Draw Something had grossed more in a single day than all its other games combined.
