Outside of Russia and most of Asia, Facebook (the blue countries) is now the main player. I recently came across a world map of social media on the Vincos Blog. I really enjoy their post because it shows you the gradual change in social networks in different parts of the world. Only three years ago you can see that there are many different social networks dominating in different countries. As social networks have matured and the weaker networks have faded away, you can see what is left.

Developer Trubnikov: Russia classifies beer as alcoholic. Only in Russia would anything less than 10% be called food. :). One of my favorite, periodic events during the morning commute is when I catch Nina Totenberg’s recap of the previous day’s Supreme Court proceedings. I love how she says each Justice’s name and then their comments. Maybe I just love Nina Totenberg. Regardless, today I offer you my Toten-version of the Buzz at Beaconfire on Russian beer.
