Like autumn leaves floating in a sunlit pond, this vast expanse of magnificent stingrays animates the bright blue seas of the Gulf of Mexico. Taken off the coast of Mexico's Holbox Island by amateur photographer Sandra Critelli, this breathtaking picture captures the migration of thousands of rays as they follow the clockwise current from Mexico's Yucatan peninsula to western Florida. Measuring up to 6ft 6in across, poisonous golden cow-nose rays migrate in groups - or 'fevers' - of up to 10,000 as they glide their way silently towards their summer feeding grounds.

Orkut sucks! Spam is out of control on there. Whatever Bristol Karina Ferrari is - leave me ALONE!
- vijay
I STILL get friend requests from Orkut LOL!
- Mona Nomura
Agreed Orkut sucks. I keep trying to get my friends to move to facebook but I keep failing. And to think I actually want them on Friendfeed!
- Rahul Das
Facebook sucks even more! It's a script overload NIGHTMARE!
- Mona Nomura
Rahul, I have had some success as I'm very persistent. I reply to all orkut scraps in Facebook and force them to check it out inside Fb! Not sure about FF though as most of them haven't gotten their head around twitter even.
- vijay
Mona, maybe you are targeted 'cause you are very popular? I have quite a few friends on there along with a ton of my clients but they(and I) love it! FF rules tho.
- vijay
lol, the US is the only place on the planet where MySpace is the most popular :-)
- Duncan Riley
vijay: Orkut? I haven't logged in since 2004 and I STILL get friend requests LOL As for FB, my biggest gripe is how they keep adding features and overloading the UI with Ajax, hence causing my browsers to crash! @Duncan: At this point, I'm thinking of going BACK to Myspace since it's more customizable than FB!
- Mona Nomura
I was talking about Fb, don't use orkut anymore :} And I switched to Fb initally for the UI! Google Chrome, Win XP, no probs. Anyway my point is that out of the choices for those in India, Fb is the best choice.
- vijay
Hehe, Morocco stands for FB, yeah! At least they're using something... for the rest not having data, we got what? Some places in Africa and what's that little spot under Russia? Skyrock in Algeria? Nice graph, thanks for the post there, it's really interesting!.
- ElijahBailey-Zu of FF <0,
Matt: No one answer... lol My messages are overfilling everywhere because I'm horrible at keeping up. :( @Zu -- my pleasure. :)

Orkut was long ago overrun by the bad-grammar brigade. Indian teens are addicted to it. Facebook is 'new' here. Hi5 and the others are not even on the sub-continental map.
- Vijayendra (V-Mo) Mohanty
Orkut rocks for me! Thats because almost most of the people I care about are in Orkut. I know that I cannot and will not be able to convince everyone of them to use some other social networking sites like FB, FF or myspace. I sometimes dream of a world, where FB, Orkut, Myspace could work seamlessly with each other sharing contacts and interesting data.
- Karthick R
majority looks like Facebook. however US is MySpace all the way. There are some really weird social networks out there like V Kontakte?! What the...??

Loic, I must commend you on your honest and direct approach to this unfortunate situation. I wish you and the team all the best!
- Jim McCusker
Great work my friend. I only roll with 4 wheels of truth on a chassis of honesty from now on. Its gross how much I had to lie in the past to cover up for our VCs.
- Aaron deMello
Gregory you are stupid. There is only one Segway and it is my personal money. But you are right, I am cutting that too, just nothing to do with Seesmic. You are my first stupid comment of the day if I do not count the trolls. At least you are not anonymous congrats for that.

Gregory Lent thanks for recognizing you were stupid attacking me because I had a personal Segway by deleting your comment
- Loic Le Meur
Loic, we haven't met, but we know a lot of folks in common. Props to you for handling this so well. Sorry that you had to let go folks; it is one of the great pains of startup life. All the best to you and your team.
- John McCrea
Thank you John, honestly I try to handle it as best as I can, I will have to post more about transparency soon

Loic, good luck weathering this storm and kudos to you for your transparency
- Mike Doeff
Just wanted to add to everyone's comments here and say as an employee at a start-up, I appreciate your honest and transparency. Best of luck.

Let's see how long before they notice. Just realized I have a MSFT guy on my twitter friends and I retweeted this there. Hmm..
