Fresh off a deal that will keep 'FarmVille," "Mafia Wars" and other popular Zynga titles on Facebook for at least the next five years, the company has inked a partnership with Yahoo to bring its social games to the Internet giant's massive userbase.
Yahoo users will be able to access Zynga's games from the Yahoo Homepage, Yahoo Mail, Yahoo Messenger and Yahoo Games, among other properties.

Twitter from its inception has been widely popular among companies, stars, public figures and common man alike. With the restriction of 140 words per tweet (equivalent to status update of facebook) users are more likely to be discrete about their words.
Although this Twitter Mania cannot really catch the wave in Pakistan but after the successful campaigns from Politicians on Facebook, they are also entering the space of Twitter.

UBL fund mangers might be handled by very professional analysts but what impresses me is their adaptability to new technologies. UBL Fund Managers have been very active on Facebook & twitter and their updates are more frequent.

Facebook, a famous tool for teenagers, could also prove a tough deal if your father asked you to add him in your friend list!!

One of our team member (you can guess the name) shared with us that his father wants him to b

What would they do with so much money? a question asked by many of my friends especially when we discuss The Rich Guys.
