Mashable is a social networking news blog. With allegedly over 5 million monthly pageviews[2] and an Alexa ranking under 1,000,[3] it ranks among the largest blogs on the Internet. Mashable regularly writes about MySpace, YouTube, Bebo, Facebook, and Xanga,[4] but it also reports on less high-profile social networking sites.[1] The website also features its own social network, customized profiles, and MySpace layouts.[2]
