Like almost everyone that I know, I have this love/hate thing going with Google.  I’d probably feel better about the company if I had been smart enough to buy share of the stock at the darkest moment of the recession.  But I didn’t.

Social Networking User Activity Doubles Since 2007

Interesting article over at Mashable today. Apparently, Forrester Research has released numbers that shows the amount of social networking users (those that visit MySpace, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc…) has doubled since this time in 2007.
