According to Hitwise, as of last week, the MySpace domain is one of the most visited domain amongst U.S. Internet users, accounting for 4.92% of all Internet visits. At its peak in June of this year, the site accounted for 7% of all Internet visits. Meanwhile, Facebook has been increasing steadily, currently taking the position as the ninth most popular domain in the U.S., accounting for 1% of all Internet visits. Even though both sites - being within the top 10 of all Internet domains - are somewhat ubiquitous, demographic and psychographic data on users indicates that there are some unique audience...
...common sites visited after dropping by the site. Facebook visitors have a similar pattern, visiting sites like Slide, YouTube and Flixter. The one stand-out difference between the two is that, owing to Facebook's heritage as a social network for college students, 5% of those leaving the Facebook domain continue on to websites within the educational category.

...makeup of England's side is a reminder that there, too, rugby has spread far beyond its traditional domain as the erstwhile preserve of posh public-school types. Though a strong elite element remains, the current England team owes its success in part to such stars as Laurence Dallaglio, Paul Sackey and Jason Robinson (sons, respectively, of Italian, Jamaican and Ghanaian immigrants). Expect that diversity to grow: As television helps fuel rugby's popularity from the ground up, a rising number of the nation's best players will emerge from more modest milieus than Eton, Harrow and the school that...
...most visible suggestions of “model minority” status arises in the domain of educational attainment. It is true that some Asian Americans have attained high levels of scholarly achievement—for instance, 64 percent of Asian Indians hold at least a bachelor’s degree, and over 50 percent of Chinese and Pakistani do. The counter story, however, is one we must also keep in mind; among Cambodians, Hmong and Laotians, only 8 or 9 percent graduate college—in fact, only about half graduate high school .Thus the label of Asian-American...
