Hi5 Another Massive Social Network
2007-12-03 17:27:00
Hi5, which launched in late 2003, is a massive MySpace-style social network. The site targets the teens and twenties demographic and claims to have over 40 million members. According to the latest Hitwise stats (June ?06), hi5 is the 8th most visited US social network. However, the site is losing market share - it now accounts for 0.78% of the social networking market, down from 1.06% in May. And although not explicitly stated, Hi5 appears to be more targeted than MySpace - many of the site?s users are fans of HipHop and R&B.Like most social networks, hi5 gives users a profile page which includes their name, gender, location and a profile picture. Users must be 13 or over, but obviously there?s no way to verify a member?s age. On sign up, the site strongly encourages users to import their friends from Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail and and AOL Mail - so strongly, in fact, that it?s hard to skip this process.Profile pages are located at username.hi5.com. What?s more, these pages are fully ...

Hate Clubs Mushroom on Orkut
2007-12-03 14:34:00
If you happen to hate Big B's smug face, beaming across from every other channel, or those tireless 'K's' from Ekta Kapoor's 'soap factory', you now have space to vent your emotions.Hate communities or hate clubs are becoming increasingly popular on social networking Web sites like Google-owned Orkut .On Orkut, the Ekta Kapoor hate club leads the pack with a membership of nearly 76,468 and counting. Followed by Himesh Reshamiya (of the nasal twang) with 33,137 members; Shah Rukh Khan with 11,179; Greg Chappell with 7,659; yes, Mahatma Gandhi with 6,647; General Musharraf with 1,362; and the Big B with 1,410.Ironically, while the Father of the Nation boasts a thousands-strong hate club, his killer, Nathuram Godse, does not even warrant a mention on Orkut or Facebook.Psychiatrist Sameer Parikh explains that people possess a certain amount of hatred, dislikes, and complexities, and they get a chance to express these on such communities and groups. However, Parikh says, too much t...

Safety tips for Cyber Romance
2007-12-02 14:07:00
Before we start...you need to recognize that the only way to stay truly safe in a dating situation is to not date, period! There are always risks in dating, especially when you date strangers (blind dates, first dates and cyber-dates). In addition, teens should not be cyberdating. There are special rules for teens online. These tips are just for those over 18 years old.Cyber dating is a little different from the other first dates, though. When you first meet a cyberdate in person, offline, you feel as though you know them - the normal first date precautions are often tossed to the wind. You know their favorite actors, authors and foods. You know everything they have told you, but they may not have been telling you the truth. You do not really know them. So treat them as strangers, use all the normal precautions you use with strangers, even cute ones. You should not give any more information to a first cyberdate than you would to a stranger you meet on a plane, or in a club, or in a b...

Cafe from ibibo, social networking with mobile alerts and enhanced privacy
2007-12-02 13:13:00
After letting people to get paid for blogging on ibibo platform, now they are come up with social networking with two great most expected featuresControlling who should view your profile: With this feature, the profile owner can set restrictions whether his/her profile should be exposed to the public or only to best friends. But another proble with their privacy is that anyone can view the photo of the profile owner even without login in to the cafe.ibibo.com [ view my profile ]. And they are, of course, exposed to search engines. I feel this has to be fixed by ibibo web team, to complete their privacy control mission.Mobile SMS alerts and email alerts: You can be a trusted member in cafe ibibo, if provide your mobile phone number. Apart from this, you can even receive SMS event alerts for the activities like, new friend requests, blurbs etc.Orkut says they also provide SMS alerts, but still I couldn't find how to do that.

Facebook Face the Facts
2007-12-02 13:00:00
Facebook has backtracked on its earlier plans as to how it will employ its Beacon online advertising system amongst a backlash from its members and political groups.The popular social networking site planned to publish information like online purchases as part of a member?s profile ? something which quickly raised privacy concerns and understandably unleashed a backlash from various quarters.Facebook had to face the fact that it is a social networking site and that it should be very careful about its future plans not to upset its user base. There are many competing services out there ? notably MySpace and Orkut ? and migrating to one of these networks are not difficult.Facebook however backtracked amidst all of the criticism, making the new system opt-in only. The company promised that ?No stories will be published without users proactively consenting.?The company said that it appreciate feedback from all Facebook users and that users now have more control over the stories that get ...

Orkut Chronicles
2007-11-30 02:13:00
Advent of the Internet in the country has revolutionized life in every manner possible. Not only it has opened our mind to the flexibility of the English Grammar and the limits to which it can be stretched, particularly when making friendship requests to people, it has also revealed the existence of an odd naval fetish among the men of this country as is evident from their growing interest in friendship, loveship, dateship and a million other such ships.I have also come to the realization that country is bursting with women who look like Aishwarya Rai, Preity Zinta, and of late, Deepika Padukone as is evident from their online profiles. This surely augurs well for all the guys, and especially for the captain and vice-captain of the Indian cricket team who seem to have fallen for the same woman, totally oblivious to the existence of a 1000 other look likes in this country. Wonder why I never meet any of them on the road. What disturbs me though is that there are some women who appar...

Google SocialStream
2007-11-18 15:42:00
Something I didn?t make clear in our Orkut coverage, based on comments: Google ?s SocialStream was originally conceived as a way to improve Orkut, and the new Orkut design, which looks a lot like the SocialStream mockups, increases the probability that SocialStream?s features will just be added to Orkut and not launched separately. From the SocialStream project plan:Directed to help improve the online community orkut, the project?s scope was not to simply redesign the interface. Our team considered how online social networking could bring greater value to users, especially for ages above twenty.It?s still possible that SocialStream may be rolled out separately to distance it from Orkut?s Brazilian and Indian user base - the point would clearly be to get traction in the US market. And yet that would also mean a doubling of the workload: Orkut already has all the social networking basics, plus integration with many of Google?s services (Google Talk, for instance).And if SocialStream di...

Yahoo and Google to Turn E-Mail Into a Social Network:Inbox 2.0
2007-11-16 08:57:00
Ignore Orkut, OpenSocial , Yahoo Mash and Yahoo 360. Google and Yahoo have come up with new and very similar plans to respond to the challenge from MySpace and Facebook: They hope to turn their e-mail systems and personalized home page services (iGoogle and MyYahoo) into social networks.Web-based e-mail systems already contain much of what Facebook calls the social graph ? the connections between people. That?s why the social networks offer to import the e-mail address books of new users to jump-start their list of friends. Yahoo and Google realize that they have this information and can use it to build their own services that connect people to their contacts.This has several features. First, the e-mail service is made more personal because it displays messages more prominently from people who are more important to you. Yahoo is testing a method that can automatically determine the strength of your relationship to someone by how often you exchange e-mail and instant messages with him...

Google Free Proxy
2007-11-15 12:48:00
We all know that Google is more than a search engine; we do use it as provider for email, mapping, news and many other services. Google is now also a free proxy service. Proxy is a device that stands between a PC and the internet, providing all the connections to the world wide web. What a proxy does is to receive all data from a requested site, so when you access web pages all data come from proxy.What's the purpose for Google as a proxy? We often use office/school/university connections, usually those services are set to provide more safety, blocking the access to undesidered web sites (the "black list"). What you can do now is use Google translator service (language tools) as a proxy to bypass the restrictions set for our connection!You just need to type the following URL:http://www.google.com/translate?langp air=enen&u;=www.forbiddensite.com(http:// www.forbiddensite.com/ stands for the URL you need to go to...)What you'll get is the translation (english to english!) of the page...
