Social Networking Sites Traffic
I was playing around with Alexa, and I thought I would plot the charts of some popular social networking type sites. I noticed a few things… Xanga‘s traffic seems to start going down exactly when MySpace‘s goes up. Coinsidence? Also, there is a huge gap of facebook‘s traffic in the last few months of 2005. I believe this is because they just switched from thefacebook.com to just facebook.com, and Alexa didn’t track facebook until the start of 2006. If you plot thefacebook.com, you’ll get the same graph as facebook.com.
