Here’s a list of the Top 10 Social Sites, according to Alexa, world-wide:
1. YouTube: Though primarily a video-sharing website, YouTube ranks among the Top 10 Websites of any kind on the Internet right now. Users can upload, view, and comment on videos. In April 2008, reports indicated that the site is host to over 83 million video clips, boasting more traffic than any other site. Ordinary computer users began to form networks and followings through YouTube; other users can subscribe to your video uploads easily and provide feedback.
2. MySpace: Long recognized as the most popular social networking site for teens and adults, MySpace allows users to develop an interactive personal profile, network with friends and contacts, maintain blogs, and share photos and music.
3. Facebook: Facebook organizes networks according to city, workplace, school, and region. Members can interact by sending messages to one another. Users can be members of multiple networks and even have access to their friends’ profiles.
4. Orkut: Orkut is an online social community designed by Google (and named after its creator, Orkut Büyükkökten) to help you maintain and expand your social life. Interacting with people you know more easily, sharing pictures and videos, and posting messages is easy. Networks of friends based on hobbies and interests, and even dating groups, are available. While Orkut’s original target audience was the US, it has become the most-visited site in Brazil, and the second most-visited site in India.
