Death of Elections Talk Shows???
This was the question that raised in my mind when i saw the integration of Google Maps with Twitter[Asking what is Twitter, read about it here]. Hearing(reading) what people like you and me have to say about Super Tuesday (in just 140 characters) was much more interesting than hearing all that nonsense in Election Talk shows. Yeah! Death of Election Talk shows may be far reaching but this product has a huge potential. Read more @ Be part of the Super Tuesday Action & Super Tuesday Wrapup3. OpenSocial Apps Very Soon on Orkut:

Aah, nice bit of tech update in this post... yet, id like you to check out this link and the flv file in the references...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPIC_2014
Though the video EPIC_2014 seems far fetched, it is something that Facebook(not google) is trying to achieve.. They are trying to use the information in their social media network to provide target advertising in websites... [A different business model of ads on website depending on person rather than ads depending on the content of the website(Google's model].. Also if user generated content is bad, wikipedia should have been pathetic... But it is not the case..
acebook and Orkut are two of the most popular social networking sites. Both of them offer very similar features and capabilities.If we compare Facebook vs. Orkut.com from a market share perspective then it will show you that both are considerably behind MySpace with Facebook owning just over 11.5% of the market share and Orkut having less than 1%. Facebook has become very popular in North America over the last few months whereas Orkut is extremely popular in India.
Many people prefer Facebook to orkut as Facebook is a much more professional looking whereas Orkut looks somewhat unfinished,Facebook's Mini Feed feature is useful in seeing a quick snapshot on the latest happenings within your network,the ease at which you can customize layouts within FaceBook, especially the drag and drop option,the ability to supply how you know a person (through school, other friends, work, randomly, etc). This is especially interesting when you and one your contacts know the same person, but through different ways. Creating profiles in such websites for my business hotels, budget hotels, holiday packages is happening good in Alexa traffic details.
