* The social networking site Friendster, while [[Deader Than Disco|long-dead]] here in North America and subject to [[Anyone Remember Pogs?]]-style [https://web.archive.org/web/20131031013316/http://www.theonion.com/video/internet-archaeologists-find-ruins-of-friendster-c,14389/ jokes] by ''[[The Onion]]'', is ''the'' [[Friending Network]] in large parts of East and Southeast Asia. The top five countries using Friendster are the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea and the US.
** Which leads to an aversion: While Friendster is used in the Philippines so much, [[Myspace]] gets rarely used or mentioned there, despite the ability of its users to befriend celebs there.
* Orkut, out of all the possible countries, is very popular in India, Estonia and especially Brazil. In fact, Google's social networking site, became so popular among Brazilians within a year of its launch that the American users fled. A few years later, Orkut headquarters were moved to Brazil. It's one of the most popular websites on the internet, but largely unknown in its country of origin, where its parent company is a household name.
