English Russia writes about the phenomenon of “social network graffiti” [ENG] that became very popular among the users of the leading Russian social network Vkontakte.ru.
There are 15 million Web sites in the Russian segment of the Internet. They account for 6,5 percent of all Web sites available online. An average Russian Web site contains 255 pages, 159 thousand words, and 204 images. These facts were revealed in the latest research “The Runet Content” by Yandex [RUS].
Fifty one percent of young Russians (ages 16 - 24) consider the Internet a reliable source of information. This makes the Internet the second most trustworthy source after TV among the youth. This and other findings are available in a newly published report [RUS] by the Public Opinion Foundation.

Russia can regain its respectability as a strong and influential world power through its involvement of Russian youth in connecting with youth groups around the world. As a retired high school principal in New York, I am developing a youth program that will unite youth groups in 34 countries by implementing this theme. Russian youth cab serve a leading role.
