Igniting Social Change

In the world of Social Networking sites springing up, found a good link of what sites popular in which part of the world

Some patterns from the data:

• Orkut leads in the Indian subcontinent, as well as Brazil;

• Facebook is stronger, internationally, than Myspace, with surprising strongholds in the Middle East;

• hi5.com is the most international of all the social networks, leading in Peru, Colombia, Central America, and other, scattered countries such as Mongolia, Romania, and Tunisia;

• both Bebo and Skyblog follow colonial patterns, the first strong in smaller English-speaking countries such as Ireland and New Zealand, and the latter in Francophone countries;

• and Friendster, the original social network, leads all across Southeast Asia.

• Fotolog, a photo service defeated in the US by Friendster, has re-emerged as the dominant social network in Argentina and Chile
