Makes me think of Risk, frankly.
At a time when once-upon-a-shining-star Friendster reports a 40% monthly gain in pageviews in May, 2007 (skippy: can you check to see if the population of the Philippines grew by 40% in May of this year, thanks!), Valleywag looks at which social network reins supreme across the globe.
I think this is very important, because the US will continue to lose an inch every day as global Internet audiences, broadband penetration and online advertising continues to grow quicker than it does in the US. In other words, while the obsession we have over Facebook and MySpace is warranted, the real race for global supremacy in social networking communities has really only begun.
