  1. OMG Orkut is still in the race, infact the usage is improved by 0.26% which is really hard to believe. I almost stopped using orkut.

    Few annoying things like ppl of India were not still using twitter and linkedIn, in full fledged way as in Western Countries.

    Thnx for HBB and DI for Social Media usage graph in India!
