The Most Beautiful People in the World Cup

worldcup

Vote now for the most beautiful people and teams in the World Cup. Not sure if the number of good looking gents is going to affect the score of the World Cup, but Spain wins in the attractive scale with an average team score of 5.85 versus Germany’s 5.29. If you were curious the USA has a solid 5.25 average. That’s a nice consolation prize. Go America!

Facebook rules the world

While traveling around Spain this week there’s one thing that’s clear, Facebook rules the world. At a hostel in Barcelona there were people from various backgrounds, Polish, Italian, German, French, Norwegian, etc. But, in the computer lab there was one thing that everyone could universally speak, Facebook. At one point in the middle of the night (around 4 am) all ten computers were being used to check and update Facebook statuses. It’s amazing to see the reach one social networking platform can have. It reminds us that despite culture differences, a vast majority of the world enjoy socially gathering on the internet to share and stay connected. As a side note though, it’s fascinating that not one time did we find people using Twitter or MySpace, only Skype.
