Facebook’s Comment Box Widget

By Dave Hanson | February 20, 2009

Today Facebook launched a widget tied to Facebook Connect that lets publishers easily implement a commenting system on their site that is automagically tied to visitor’s Facebook account.

This is the first widget Facebook has released for use outside of the Facebook site and they are planning more.  Other commenting services like JS-Kit already allow users to use their Facebook Connect logins.

11% Of Internet Users Are On Twitter?!?

By Dave Hanson | February 12, 2009

TweetInteresting new data from Pew shows 11% of online Americans are now tweeting.  Up from 6% in May.  Maybe Twitter actually be able to figure out how to make money some day.

Online microblogging services like Twitter, a popular social media tool for many media companies and television networks, are used by 11% of online Americans, according to a research report conducted by Pew Internet & American Life Project in December and released today. That’s up from 9% of online Americans using the service in November.

Back in May, Pew reported online microblogging usage at about 6% of online Americans.

Twitter users skew young, with one in five online Americans in the 18-to-24 demo using Twitter. But Pew also said the median age of a Twitter user is 31, compared to 27 for MySpace, 26 for Facebook and 40 for LinkedIn.
