Hitwise Confirms a Coalition of the Willing

Yesterday, I was giving OpenSocial a hard time. I even referenced one of my sources who called the new OpenSocial partners a “coalition of the willing.” Later in the day, Hitwise went and produced statistics comparing Facebook to the combination of OpenSocial partners in terms of their U.S. traffic. A quick look at the graph below confirms that Facebook indeed dwarfs all of the partners. If MySpace was included in the chart I am confident that you would see a similar dwarfing of the OpenSocial alliance.

These statistics skew the global picture though.
