Matty (a link I found via Let Me Get This Straight) gives a good overview of Internet trends over the past year. Bang on.

I hear so much about Friendster, and I've signed myself up, but I haven't recommended any friends yet, so I can't surf :-( but it does sound interesting. and it certainly is generating a lot of buzz. I wonder how well something like Friendster would work if you live in what the beautiful people of SF, LA, and NYC would probably consider to be the hinterlands LOL

Oh God, I'm indulging in a Winnipegger's favourite pastime: putting ourselves down. Somebody slap me.
