On the 25th of December Christmas Tweets – our twitter visualiser http://www.christmastweets.co.uk/ – achieved the accolade of site of the day on the FWA http://www.thefwa.com. What I love about it is it’s not worthy, it’s a great use of twitter, it looks great and it’s fun. The competition is fierce on the FWA so well done to everyone involved.

While you’re there don’t forget to vote on the people’s choice award http://www.thefwa.com/pca2009/.

Without trying to sway you, I voted for the Soapbox Racer for Red Bull by Less Rain. It’s a lovely idea, beautifully crafted.

Happy New Year.

I’m a massive sucker for graphs, infothetics and that sort of stuff and recently saw the above on the excellent Information is Beautiful blog. What do you think?

At first I was pretty surprised at the big split between the number of female and male twitterers (the only females that follow me on Twitter want me to take a look at their “XXXHOT pics”). But with Facebook the divide is even more pronounced –  last month Inside Facebook reported that, in the US, the female/male ratio on the site has now hit an all time high, with ladies outnumbering blokes 1.35 to 1, with twice as many women joining Facebook in the last month than men.

I wonder why? Is it because fewer men have access to a computer at their place of work? Or are women just more social than men?
