		<description>Hi 5 started out ok but it seemed they just grew to fast. This site has a lot of applications(games, puzzles, music and etc) and most of them DO NOT work for very long. They may be up and running for a couple of days and then oops they crashed again. The site used to be fun now it is getting just boring.</description>

		<description>[...] In Latin America youth are enthusiastically embracing Social Networking websites, much like the rest of the globe. In 2007, the number of social network users in five major Latin American countries more than doubled (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Mexico). During the same period, Latin Americans residing in the United States also increased their participation in social networks by 48%. On average, Latin Americans spend 375 minutes per user per month on social networking sites, as opposed to 249 minutes in USA. One of the world’s largest communities of social network users is Brazilian youth, who on average have 239 people in their online network of friends (Circuits of Cool - Booklet). While Brazilian youth are attracted to Google’s Orkut, Central American youth more commonly connect through the site Hi5. According to TechCrunch: [...]</description>

		<description>How about some credibility in reporting. Citing Alexa?hi5 and tagged.com are #28 and #29 according to comScore. Nowhere near the top. Wordpress.com has more visitors for Pete&#039;s sake. 
Sorry, it&#039;s over. Time to cash out.</description>
