The latest numbers are in from Nielsen Online, and they conclude the obvious: Facebook is downright surging in popularity. The site registered a record 47.5M US-based unique visitors in November, up from 39.9M just one month prior. Top social network MySpace continued to hover around 60M, with an official count of 59.1M.

: ask what the ad space goes for on either site, and via mobile. Facebook has myspace beat by a landslide on mobile and apps, that's why it's value is so high. See how Pandora.com uses it's mobile space to land advertisers.

It's a new high bar of popularity for the 2nd most popular browser in the world.Firefox is safe, standards compliant, extensible...and not made by (Read More)

: 20% market is great. It's just a shame I still need to open Internet Explorer to watch FLASH videos. I'll be discontinuing ANY use of FF if it's not fixed shortly which makes me wonder just how much market share they'll give back to IE with this continued issue.

The potential impact on our democracy is both thrilling and troubling. On the thrilling side is the potential for a long standing increase in the engagement of people in politics-- most notably, among the youngest voters, who have always been the least engaged. On the troubling side is the potential disintermediation of our (Read More)

: Obama has successfully combined community organizing and social networking technology. It would take a steep learning curve for the GOP to catch up to the new playing level.

from Digg:
If you don’t know by now, Proposition 8 would eliminate the right of same-sex couples to legally marry. Proposition 8 proponents have refused to comment on whether they would actively seek to invalidate the marriages of those couples who have been united since same-sex marriage was legalized in California.

: Oh and Christiaan, if marriage is indeed not a political issue, please explain the founding of the Anglican Church, which was based squarely on a political dispute between Henry VIII and the Emperor of Spain and the Pope at the time? Please explain the many, many, many marriages of European royals for centuries? Please explain the institutions of dowries and the several thousand marriage rights granted by legal marriage to straight couples that Gay couples are denied? Please explain the need for civil marriage licenses? Which, let me remind you, is what is at stake here. None of these can be explained in religious terms. None of these can be found in any testament, gospel or bible. Your contention is a smoke screen. It is a deflection that panders to the less educated and the less knowledgeable to try to delude and cajole them into agreeing with your narrow, theocratic position. You actively practice political blasphemy in a society founded on the ideals of separation of church and state. Your position is only rivalled by that of Islamic fundamentalists in the world today. Gays are not demanding that any religious body sanction our marriages. We are demanding that our government, the same government that takes our tax money, the same government that requires us to die for our country while keeping silent about our sexual orientation, the same government demands and enforces every single other law and statute on us as citizens, that THAT government also enforce the civil statute of marriage equally!

Is there anything Twitter can’t do? Apparently, you can even use it to guesstimate the result of US presidential elections in certain states. This little chart below, although not graphically beautiful, is the result of some algorithms put together by Setfive Consulting. They’re parsing tweets to see if users ha (Read More)

: So how do the hard working folks keep the new liberal president and the largely democratic senate and house out of our pockets. The one thing that we cannot afford is 12% unemployment, 12% annual cost of living increases, tax rates doubling accross the board, etc that has been seen when liberalism runs rampant. So where does the small business man go when the mandates that our new president says he will pursue makes it impossible to stay afloat and we die, along with our employees joining the unemployment lines..... We can only hope that he is a smart as the "majority" thinks he is and he does not play the stupid card.
