    Alexa recent data reports during the same period facebook saw a decline of over 6 million users in north america, onlymeworld saw an increase of 1800% in that same period. It's true their membership is small compared to Facebook, but at their rate of growth, in no time at all they will become a major competitor.

    Perhaps the reason onlymeworld is experiencing this kind of growth is because it doesn't it's users for their real names & email addresses. Or maybe because it has custom privacy settings. Or maybe because if you were to combine facebook, twitter, and linkedln all into one your have onlymeworld. Or maybe it's because they don't track their users on the web.

    I don't know about you, but I don't think Facebook is worth $100 Billion in Q1 of 2012.

    ONLYMEWORLD the new facebook alternative, or perhaps the New Industry Standard?!

    The Americans are not ablo to develop the computer tech.

    Almost all softwares are terrible,let alone complex softwares ,they
    can't even produce proper browser. ( example : Firefox has ~11 Mb file
    no add on ,but ; (Gecko engine = 5 Mb ) + ( It's software = 2 Mb ) + (4Mb unknown). !

    I have (5-6) kinds of softwares projections can be patented .
