Oggi si parla della validità dei dati di Alexa, la quale avrebbe ammesso che i dati fino ad oggi riportati non erano attendibili http://punto-informatico.it/pi.asp?id=2260005

L’analisi dell’audience online si deve basare sul tempo passato dagli

I’m listening in on Apple’s Q1 conference call, and one fact really jumped out at me. They were discussing the Mac market growth this quarter and remarked that Mac market growth in the US grew 31% in quarter, compared to PC market growth of 3%. These numbers are amazing, people, and if you consider that Apple hasn’t really announced any exciting Mac related announcements for awhile, they are even more amazing.

I wonder what these numbers will be like when Apple revamps the Mac line, and ships Leopard.

Dopo aver rivoluzionato la telefonia con le chiamate via Internet, i creatori di Skype Niklas Zennstrom e Janus Friis annunciano il lancio di Joost, un sistema che permettera’ di creare una programmazione televisiva personalizzata sul proprio computer. Il nuovo servizio e’ attualmente in fase di test su alcuni utenti, ma sara’ diffuso al grande pubblico entro la prima meta’ del 2007. Nel 2005 Zennstrom e Friis hanno ceduto Skype a Ebay per 2,6 miliardi di dollari.

Google has displaced Yahoo as the world’s second most-visited Web site–although not by much–according to November figures comScore Networks. Google’s sites brought in 475.7 million visitors, compared to Yahoo’s 475.3 million. Both trail global leader Microsoft, which attracted a whopping 501.7 million visitors.

Other notable increases included News Corp.’s Fox Interactive Media, whose global traffic surged five-fold to 130.4 million. Web video leader YouTube rose 24-fold to 107.9 million; its traffic was not added to the total for Google, its new parent.

For Google, this was the first time it ever attracted more visitors than Yahoo, capping a year in which the search giant has beaten Yahoo in almost every area where both Web companies compete.

Bloomberg reminds us that this latest achievement for Google reflects its surging popularity outside the United States. Within the U.S., Yahoo, is still the Web traffic leader, according to comScore–although other research firms claim that Fox Interactive Media, led by MySpace.com, has taken that mantle. - Read the whole story…
