: Twitter can be a wonderful tool. The problem is knowing how to use it properly. Everybody is starting to speak about Twitter thanks to celebrities. But Twitter is not only to follow star and know what people are doing. Twitter can be a great business and social media tool if used the right way. It can be powerful and effective and straight to the point. Having only 160 characters to express yourself alllow you to be short and direct, no bla-bla. Use it for business, learn the tools and see what you can do with it.

: Hello poster, readers, eyeballs everywhere! ... I really liked the way you weaved this way of explaining "how to" ... as in below "once upon a time" ... took me back to my childhood memories when reading books in those days gone by ...

You have pricked my thoughts ... Sooo now I will be using this line to "get ready to say Hi to Google" thanks a bundle for your excellent blog http://internetmlm.squarespace.com/

Once upon a time the way to get Google to notice you was to know all about technical search engine optimization (SEO) That's still important but the very best way to wave Hi! to Google is to bring in your subscribers.

All my best to you and who-ever your saying hello to

: This tool worked pretty well as soon as I realized that it didn't want me to input the full URL. I had to eliminate the 'http://' part before it would run. It would be nice to put a little example text on the page or, even better, reprogram it so it doesn't care whether or not the 'http://' is included. The current situation where you get an error message with no explanation is disconcerting.

In any case, providing this seems like an effective marketing tactic. I may just have to copy it!

@rickdavis I guess it depends on what you were found for :) Many companies I work with can't even come up in the search results with their own names, but some do. You can try to change the content on your page, along with your meta data and see if that helps you over time. It works for me: do a search for "better marketing performance" :)

: Well one thing I have to agree with is “We are the most narcissistic age ever,”our lives seem to be centered on what we want not on what we need.

Now addressing the Twitter bit - I'm not the best of twitterererers mainly because I'm a bit over the fact that people tell me they are going shopping, doing the house cleaning and range of other inane communications - I have yet to work out how to use Tweetdeck as I hear twittered about I can filter those that insist on being inane and concentrate on those who have something interesting to share.

So can you really blame the pyschologists for thinking what they think - perhaps they've heard the sqawking from their offices and decided to twit on about it!!

: This info has got to be 9crt gold ... thanks for sharing
Overall, Facebook’s demographics reveal some interesting trends which bear mentioning. On average, the ratio of male to female Facebook users is .85, meaning that there are significantly more Female facebook users than male ones. This plays out with general trends in social networking gender demographics, which tend to show a predominantly female base of users.

Looking deeper and viewing Facebook’s gender demographics on a national basis, though, we find some stark differences which break down along less obvious lines. The three most “feminine” countries, Russia, Poland, and Lithuania, are all European countries, each with a ratio of almost 2 female Facebook users for every male facebook user. In fact, the majority of large European countries are neutral or leaning feminine, with the notable exception of Turkey, which shows a strong male demographic.

For Western English speaking countries the ratio of males to females was very similar with about 40-45% male and 55-60% female.
