“Good infographic here comparing the Top 10 social networking sites. It says they account for closing on 1.5 billion users between them, but more than a third of that, of course, belongs to one company. As well as the big names of Facebook and Twitter it looks at some of the smaller ones that still have millions of members each. The surprise is maybe that MySpace still boasts 100 million members.”
