Facebook, The Numbers Speak For Themselves - 11/20/08 05:15 PM
For those of you who have not yet joined the bandwagon of Social Networking, let me just tell you that you are falling behind the times.  If you don't think people are using sites such as Facebook to connect, reconnect, and facilitate conversation, you are sadly mistaken.
Facebook is the fourth most trafficked website in the world.  There are over 100 million active Facebook users, including myself.  There are over 55,000 regional, work related, collegiate, and high school networks to help you get re-acquainted or networked.  Facebook is the number one photo sharing application on the web, and has more … (20 comments)

BusinessWeek names Gilbert "Best Places to Raise Kids" in Arizona - 11/11/08 02:54 PM
