As Facebook celebrates its fifth birthday this month, we’re taking a quick look at Facebook’s gender demographics, overall and on a per-country basis. The following analysis was constructed using usage statistics obtained directly from Facebook, and represents a country-by-country national snapshot of Facebook’s gender rati (Read More)
: 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.

I don’t think this blog would be a fraction of what it is, without Flickr. The images included with many posts draw the eye to the page and create an atmosphere for the rest of the piece. It’s also one aspect of a blog that is commented on the most. (Read More)
: Thanks for the info. I had given up on using "clip art" and other photos because of lack of variety and also not wanting to pay for everything for an occasional amateur use. This gives me another avenue.

It started with a single tip, emailed to a single website.Day One - Sunday, February 15thThe Consumerist, a consumer advocacy website, posted an article entitled Facebook's New Terms of Service - 'We Can Do Anything We Want With Your Content, Forever.' The article was picked up by several other blogs and found its way quick (Read More)
: Why would Facebook want to change their TOS to something so draconian? I get an image of the evil ring master saying to the clown in the circus "I OWN YOU now that you agreed to the TOS" mwaahahahah!..as he plays with his pointy mustache. Not that the Facebook members are clowns. I know, it's not a perfect analogy. But the outcome was pretty impressive.

According to a recent article by the UK publication The Sunday Times, people who use Twitter are insecure, egocentric, and narcissistic, and feel that their lives are "marginalised, empty and pointless." One went so far to suggest that "They don’t have an inner life.”We are calling Bulltwit on this. Here is some insight and (Read More)
: 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!!

: Great article providing a bird's eye view of the social media landscape, its tremendous impact on the private and business sphere and most important of all pointers about how to prepare ourselves to harness maximum benefit from this inevitable trend on a personal and business level. For me the subtle but vital takeaway is the fact that the success of social media optimization resides not in re-inventing the wheel but to use to establish quality private networks for personal and business benefit . Syndication as a form of business and social organization, whether in the form of old boys clubs, Rotary Clubs, professional guilts etc has always existed and will continue to exist. What has changed is the blurring of the lines between the business and personal on the one hand and the scale and global reach of the phenomenon on the other hand. This is due to power and miniaturization of processors of the reduction in the cost of communication technology in our digital society. The relatively modest cost of organizing such virtual private social networks as evident from the thousands of twitter and identi.ca clones attest to this fact. Richard Branson and Virgin are demonstrating with their Virgin FaceBook Application beta launch the direction in which businesses will integrate and deploy these social media optimization in the business sphere
: This paragraph below seemed to catch my attention … Yes Business and life are becoming as one … simply because in today’s society no one seems to have time for there next door neighbors yet alone seeking out new friends and long time acquaintances so because of this we all seem to be making our work and our computers to seek out our new found friends these days we need to think more on how we trade or time as each day begins and as always how it ends …
”At SocialMediaScience.com this is supported by mountains of evidence. Here is how it’s taking place… As more and more people use social media tools and systems to communicate, plan, and enhance both their business and life, the more we are seeing this “social process” transform both the formal business networks and the informal social relationships that are attached to them.”
: The consumer definitely has more information to make more informed decisions about products and services. Companies are going to have to pay more attention to consumer feedback.

After three years on the web, Twitter has become more than just another micro-blogging client. A whole industry of web applications have sprung up to extend and capitalize on its capabilities, from the ridiculously silly, to the gobsmackingly useful.

: If you want others to retweet your tweet it is adviceable to restrict it 120 characters. Yea we live in the soundbite age of speed dating - you have 20 seconds to make your case - brevity is of the essense
: Twitter will help you getting things done as long as you know what you use it for. Purpose is important. For many Twitter profiles (users) this might not be clear... more about this at http://www.whakate.com , if you like.
