Sanal Video, a popular Turkish video application, was first on our list. The app added 1.2 million DAU — although it has had an odd number of drastic rises and falls lately, and it has reached this level of traffic before. Video Magic added 184,100 DAU, Süper Video ! grew by 129,500 and VidyoTV Video grew by 102,300 DAU. Overall, the apps do all the same things: allowing users to view, Like and share videos to the stream. The exception is VidyoTV Video, which posts a link to your Wall every time you watch a video.
Then there were the aforementioned “affection” apps. Another Turkish app, Send Gift, allows users to send heart-shaped virtual goods to friends’ Walls; the app grew by 354,400 DAU.

Bence İnternet Sansürü..
0: Ulusal utanç kaynağıdır.
1: Bilgi alma hakkımın ihlalidir.
2: Deve kuşunun kafasını kuma gömmesidir.
3: Kanun yapıcıların teknolojiye ve sağlayabileceği faydalara ne kadar yabancı olduğunun kanıtıdır.
4: Türkiye'de hiç bir Web 2.0 projesinin başarılı olamayacağının göstergesidir.
5: Türkiye'deki medya kuruluşlarının göbek atarak seyrettiği durumdur.
6: Hiç bir kurumsal şirketin kalkıp da "höt" dememesinin beli çileden çıkartmasıdır.
HEPSİNDEN ÖNEMLİSİ:
Önümüzdeki yıllarda devreye alınacak:
- e-postaları kanun dışı okumak
- alternatif DNS'lere erişimi kapamak
- politik görüş belirten blogları engellemek
- yasak siteleri kullanan veya politik görüş belirten bloggerları hapse atmak
eylemlerinin ilk adımlarıdır..
10 sene sonra: "bu olaylar ilk böyle böyle başlamıştı" diye hayıflanarak anlatacağımız yılları yaşıyoruz..
Uyanın! Sansüre prim veren, sansürü parti programına almayan partilere oy vermeyin!
