So how different are we anyways?-The Climax! 2008-04-18 10:31:39 Not much to look into here except the 'None Listed' tab. This can be explained by a couple of reasons: a) the person is neither of them, b) he is a stalker (its almost always a 'he'!, c) its a 'she' and she doesn't want 'b)' on her tail, d) the person forgot to update this detail in the profile page, or d) the person created a Facebook profile solely on someone's suggestion and really doesn't use it that often.Note: There is a percentage of those listed as 'Female' who are, in all probability, those with waay too much facial hair for a girl. I am discounting them from this analysis (it's my blog alrite!)Whatever the reasons, for the purpose of analysis, I shall assume that 66% of those without their sex listed in the India and Pakistan networks are girls and 34% boys.

Orkut finally wakes up. But is it too little too late? 2008-04-20 00:54:00 One thing (probably the most important thing) that makes Facebook so addictive is the various third-party applications developed on the API (Application Programming Interface) platform that create content for connecting with friends in a network. Think about the time you added the 'Compare People' app and compared your friends inadvertently sending them an update on it. This gets them to check their rankings and compare their friends and so on. Brilliant strategy from the point of view of building user loyalty and growing average time spent.Facebook's been a pioneer in the third-party apps within social-networking space. This moves ahead of Web 2.0 defined as "The stage of Internet evolution that allowed users to create information, disseminate it and collaborate with other users". What th Read more:Orkut

And Yahoo's gonna kick everyone's arse! Maybe. 2008-04-27 10:09:24 Looks like Yahoo
's finally getting one up on the Googles and the Microsofts.In a move that could have far-reaching consequences not just for Yahoo and its competition but for the online space as we know it, Yahoo is opening up its Web platforms to third party application developers. And also, putting together all its offerings under a single umbrella.,145062-c,businesscenter/article.htmlWhat does "opening up its web platforms for third party applications" mean? Well, think Flickr. Now, what if you could share your images with your friends as they share theirs, what if you could tag people in your photographs, and what if these photographs could be a part of your personal profile and also a part of Yahoo Personals? Think again."The idea is to let the hundreds of millions of people who use i Read more:gonna
