MOST POPULAR WEBSITES

HERE'S WHAT'S HOT ON THE INTERNET

My observations tell me that the most popular websites in the world now are: Facebook (for social networking -- everyone in the office has a window open to Facebook while working; and school kids are also on it, updating their friends on the latest news and views of their young lives); Yahoo (to check e-mails or to check what's new on the news front -- and judging from the Internet Messaging volume -- both kids and adults are on it in equal proportions!) AND YouTube (everyone is increasingly opening numerous YouTube windows to play songs that they like -- and they can either take a break from the work and watch the music videos or, as if often the case, have the tune playing in the background while they work).

And there you have the most popular websites and their uses.

BEST OF 2008: GLOBAL STARS -- GOOGLE: THE MOTHER OF ALL SEARCH ENGINES!!!

Google is the best thing since sex. And that's the truth of it! With Google, knowledge is at everyone's fingertip. And the global map is accessible to everyone -- true democratization of knowledge and information has arrived.

Even more important than all that jazz -- you can now Google friends and see if they are on Facebook so that you can drop them a line and hook up with long lost pals.

BEST OF 2008: GLOBAL STARS -- FACEBOOK: THE GARGANTUAN SOCIAL NETWORKING SITE

Oh wow, until I got onto the Facebook bandwagon, I never realized how magnificent it really is! Facebook is a virtual behemoth that has brought long lost friends together and expanded the universe of friends for everyone and is one of the most amazing phenomena to have washed over mankind. The future is here folks!
