I’ve made an account on most of the social networks however I’m not on hi5. My 4 year old is already fan of the other hi5. My theory is that whenever the adults show up, the cool kids move on to the next party. Maybe the hi5 keg was just tapped?
Facebook and MySpace get most of the press, but another social network out there is growing much faster than either: hi5. The social network is the world’s fastest growing among the top-10 networks in that category, according to June data from analytics firm comScore.
Hi5 grew 79 percent in the first half of 2008 — twice as fast as any of the other top social networks. The site’s unique visitors grew from 31.4 million in December 2007 to 56.4 million in June 2008. Interestingly, hi5, which is headquartered in San Francisco, Calif., says that over 80 percent of its users are outside of the U.S.
