New Business Wins for March

There was a need to provide a highly secure, yet user-friendly IT system for messaging and bookings. In addition, however, there was a need to collaberate with a number of key technology providers to ensure system compatibility and co-operation.
Facebook Tops Google
Social networking website Facebook has capped a year of phenomenal growth by overtaking Google's popularity among US internet users, with industry data showing it has scored more visits on its home page than the search engine.
In a sign that the web is becoming more sociable than searchable, research firm Hitwise said that the two sites accounted for 14 per cent of all US internet visits last week. Facebook's home page recorded 7.07 per cent of traffic and Google's 7.03 per cent.
