The Badoo Project (#BadooProject)

“NYC was an easy choice as the place to first introduce Badoo to the U.S. It’s young, diverse, and social–a lot like Badoo!”
 - Jessica Powell, Chief Marketing Office for Badoo worldwide

It’s no surprise we love Badoo.

We’ve been writing about them for quite sometime now and thereby, it still should not be a surprise that when heard about The Badoo Project, we took our happy little selves to SoHo for an evening to hang out with our favourites from Londontown.

Andrés Iniesta, the man who scored the winning goal for Spain with the World Cup trophy

The FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa came to a close last week, July 11, 2010.

If you happened to be on Twitter for the month prior, you may have noticed downtime.

Not just some downtime — a lot of downtime. The Fail Whale appeared more often than not.

This is because the global ‘event’ drove record traffic to the social media outlet, resulting in trends their servers were not at all prepared for.

But, more interesting than the intensity folks online, were the staggering results that the Twitter analytics produced.
