And the winner was...

Interesting news from Hitwise about the top websites in the UK, in various of their categories. Any claims to know absolute traffic numbers for all UK sites should be taken with a large amounts of sodium chloride. But I see that bebo was the top social network (remember this is traffic, not membership).

The top Business Directory was maps.google.co.uk. Adding a business to this market leading directory is free but a lot of businesses don't seem to have bothered.

The third "winner" that caught my eye was in Sport and Fitness. No longer the preserve of fat blokes buying cans of WD40 to affect a miraculous revival of their elderly Vauxhalls - the winner was Halfords. I assume its all the bikes they sell, though there's a slim chance that WD40 is a performance enhancing drug that isn't yet illegal. It does, after all, seem do everything else.

Mine's a pint..
