Facebook: In many ways, it's a first

Facebook have 750 million members, Twitter, Google and Linkedin are far behind Zuckerberg's social network.

A few days ago, Facebook unveiled some numbers. And... wow ! Facebook, in fact, have 750 million members, so one billion users, approximatively. The "Facebook official page"'s and Eminem's and Lady Gaga's pages are the most liked on Facebook (an average of 35 million followers). But, for exemple, if we see Lady Gaga's twitter page, which is the most followed twitter account, the mother monster have only 12 million likes only, and this is clearly inferior to Zuckerberg's social network. Compared to Facebook, Twitter and Google are too weak.

Here is the classification of the most powerful social networks:

1. Facebook

2. Twitter

3. Google

4. Linkedin

5. Etc...

(Although Facebook and Twitter are more powerful than Linkedin, the professional social network entered the top 7 of the highest turnover societies. Worldwide.)

What is geo-tracking revealing about you?

If your mobile device has Wi-Fi enabled, the device's previous location may be listed on the Web.

Google publishes the estimated location of millions of iPhones, laptops, Android Phones and other million devices with Wi-Fi connections, the latest twist in a series of revelations this year about wireless devices and privacy. Android phones with location services enabled regularly beam the unique hardware IDs of nearby Wi-Fi devices back to Google, a similar practice followed by Microsoft, Apple, and Skyhook Wireless as part of each company's effort to map the street addresses of access points and routers around the globe.

Only Google and Skyhook Wireless, however, make their location databases linking hardware IDs to street addresses publicly available on the Internet, which raises novel privacy concerns when the IDs they're tracking are mobile. If someone knows your hardware ID, he may be able to find a physical address that the companies associate with you--even if you never intended it to become public. So this is a new reason, for why iPhone is better than Android Phones. We are victims of our technology !
