— Posted infacebook, history, networking, social, Twitter — 1 min read

Social networking has a rather short history, but it appear indeed quite intriguing. A good picture by “Online Schools” summarize the main facts of this interesting adventure. As a matter of fact, I was not aware, till now, of the fact that the rate of twitting at the end of 2010 was so high….

Conversely, not too many choices are left to you, if you want an iOS device: an iPhone. What else?
