The latest data from Google Ad Planner suggests that female users form a majority on all popular social networking sites except Digg where 64% of the traffic is from male users. The male to female ratio on LinkedIn and YouTube stands at 1.
I think this is interesting....Why does this happen? Who knows!

Did You Know?
The domain horse.ae was bought by a company for AED 6,100,001 (1.655m USD). The price increased a lot and still increasing. Now the price for the domain is AED 8,000,000 (2.177m USD).
The company got an offer of AED 7,235,000 (1.97m USD) from a horse lover. They gained all this profit because of their hard work and marketing. They had spent a lot for the marketing of this domain. Not only that as you all know .ae is for U.A.E. All the people in the gulf especially UAE nationals are very fond of horses. Horse race is a royal game in gulf region. It is played by the members of royal families. So the domain horse.ae has a great value.
Their luck!!!!!!!!!!!
President Barack Obama warned American teenagers on Tuesday of the dangers of putting too much personal information on internet social networking sites, saying it could come back to haunt them in later life.
The presidential words of advice follow recent studies that suggest US employers are increasingly turning to sites such as Facebook and News Corp's MySpace to conduct background checks on job applicants.
Taking part in a question-and-answer session with a group of 14- and 15-year-old school students, Obama was asked by one pupil for some advice on becoming US president.
"Well, let me give you some very practical tips. First of all, I want everybody here to be careful about what you post on Facebook, because in the YouTube age, whatever you do, it will be pulled up again later somewhere in your life," Obama said.
"And when you're young, you make mistakes and you do some stupid stuff. And I've been hearing a lot about young people who - you know, they're posting stuff on Facebook, and then suddenly they go apply for a job and somebody has done a search."
Obama referred several times to "mistakes" he had made when he was at school but offered no specifics. He has previously admitted to drug use when he was younger.
A survey in June by careerbuilder.com found that 45 per cent of employers used social network sites to research job candidates and that Facebook, which says it has 250 million users worldwide, was their site of choice.
Some 35 per cent of the employers surveyed said they had found content on the sites that had influenced them to reject a candidate. Examples included inappropriate photographs, information about the applicants' drinking or drug use, or bad mouthing of previous employers, co-workers or clients.
Do you want to capture a full screenshot of a web page without installing any software or browser extensions?
Well, here’s a simple trick.
Open the web page that you want to capture, go to the address bar of the browser and type "aviary.com/" just before the http:// part of the URL.
For instance, if your web address is something like http://blog4info.co.cc, the new URL will become aviary.com/http://blog4info.co.cc - hit Enter and there you have an editable screenshot image of that page.
Or add this bookmarklet to the bookmarks bar and you can even save yourself from typing aviary.com every time you want to capture a screenshot.
You can save the image to the desktop or further add annotation using the Type Tool, freehand brushes, arrows and other tools available in the Aviary editor. It can’t get easier than this.
And it even works with the Flash videos of YouTube.
Another web services that allows screen capture of web pages in the browser is Kwout.com though it won’t do full pages. [via RWW]

Iranian government blocks Facebook access, But why? A political Play? Or An action to protect the youth? Whatever, its gone.
Iranian authorities often block specific websites and blogs considered critical of the Islamic regime, but the timing of the latest clampdown suggested it was intended to undermine opponents of the hardline president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
During the last presidential race, in 2005, information about rallies and campaign updates were sent by text message. In recent years, political blogs by Iranians in the country and abroad have grown sharply. Newcomers such as Twitter are also gaining in popularity.
Do you think it is not a political game??? Then Discuss with us through comments.....

A look into the most popular sites:
Twitter.com: The site that started the microblogging phenomenon was founded in San Francisco in 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone and Evan Williams. The site works by sending a text message to one of four numbers located in the US, Canada, India, or the United Kingdom. Those messages appear on Twitter.com and can be viewed by anyone. Followers of the blog can choose to receive SMS updates every time a new update is posted. Number of monthly visitors: 7,935,441.
Flickr: Flickr used to be a site that was all about photography. Photos are still a big part of what the site offer. Flickr allows users to upload, touch-up and share their pictures online. You can organise your photos for family and friends, and just use Flickr as a place to store your digital files. You can even tag your photos to a map to show where they were clicked. Flickr was developed by Vancouver-based Ludicorp. It launched Flickr in February 2004. In March 2005 both the site and parent company were acquired by Yahoo. Number of monthly visitors: 23,769,885.
Zannel.com: A relatively new site that adds Multimedia Service (MMS) as a way to let people update blogs. That means that instead of sending a text message, Zannel users can update their blogs from their phones with text and images by sending them to a personalised email address. Zannel won a Webby for Best Mobile Social Network in 2008. The site was launched in 2007. Number of monthly visitors: 38,159.

Digg.com: This is the place to visit if you want to talk about the day's news. Users post links to stories they find on other sites, which are then read by others and commented on. And there is a lot of commenting. Readers also have the choice of giving any story the thumbs-up (you 'Digg it') or the thumbs-down ('Bury it'). The more 'Diggs' a story gets, the wider its circulation among the site's readers. Digg was founded in 2004 by Kevin Rose, Owen Byrne, Ron Gorodetzky, and Jay Adelson. Number of monthly visitors: 33,433,760
Imeem.com: This is a social networking site that includes blogs, photos, audio and video.

Have you ever wanted to send confidential information within your work environment, to family or friends, but were afraid to do so over the internet, because some malicious hacker could be spying on you?
Privnote is a free web based service that allows you to send top secret notes over the internet. It's fast, easy, and requires no password or user registration at all.
Just write your note, and you'll get a link. Then you copy and paste that link into an email (or instant message) that you send to the person who you want to read the note. When that person clicks the link for the first time, they will see the note in their browser and the note will automatically self-destruct; which means no one (even that very same person) can read the note again. The link won't work anymore.
You can optionally choose to be notified when your note is read by leaving your email and a reference for the note.
Hi Friends,
I am very sad and amazed hearing the news that tells that Blogger and blogspot is now blocked in turkey. Freedom to speech and expression is given as a fundamental right by many organizations and countries while Turkey blocks Blogger. Turkey does not give internet freedom. First they blocked Word press then youtube then comes Blogger. And Hundreds of sites.
Advantage:
Nothing.
Disadvantages:
However the ones who need to use blogger will use it. Using some other ways like hacking or cracking.
When restriction is made more people will be interested in using it. Sure!!!!!
Etc Etc.
The Internet has grown exponentially in the last fifteen years but search engines have not kept up—until now. Cuil searches more pages on the Web than anyone else—three times as many as Google and ten times as many as Microsoft.
Rather than rely on superficial popularity metrics, Cuil searches for and ranks pages based on their content and relevance. When we find a page with your keywords, we stay on that page and analyze the rest of its content, its concepts, their inter-relationships and the page’s coherency.
Then we offer you helpful choices and suggestions until you find the page you want and that you know is out there. We believe that analyzing the Web rather than our users is a more useful approach, so we don’t collect data about you and your habits, lest we are tempted to peek. With Cuil, your search history is always private.
Cuil is an old Irish word for knowledge. For knowledge, ask Cuil.
