Valleywag has conducted a study of world wide social network usage using data gathered by Alexa they found:
- Orkut leads in the Indian subcontinent, as well as Brazil
- Facebook is stronger, internationally, than Myspace, with surprising strongholds in the Middle East
- hi5.com is the most international of all the social networks, leading in Peru, Colombia, Central America, and other, scattered countries such as Mongolia, Romania, and Tunisia
- Both Bebo and Skyblog follow colonial patterns, the first strong in smaller English-speaking countries such as Ireland and New Zealand, and the latter in Francophone countries
- Friendster, the original social network, leads all across Southeast Asia
- Fotolog, a photo service defeated in the US by Friendster, has re-emerged as the dominant social network in Argentina and Chile
