The country was Angola which I could not find in the list of countries. I found it under Africa (region). The top 5 sites are the following:
1. Angola Press News Agency
2. Wikipedia – Angola
3. Sonangol (oil company)
4. Wikipedia – Luanda
5. United States – Washington DC (Angola Embassy site in Washington DC).
There’s NO social networking platform listed among 58sites list. Yahoo! Groups – Angola is the 30th listed on the list. I know more and more young people are using Facebook but not enough to make to the list. Recently some protests were scheduled to happen in Luanda, lead mainly by Facebook users overseas. After so many years in civil war and so many years with the same political party in power, local Angolans do not dare to expose themselves. But some people say it is just a matter of time.
Optional 3: I am the Website content manager for the US Embassy in Luanda and run Web Trends from time to time. What I’ve learned is that all the daily work I do to update news articles on our Portuguese site, plus the eventual posting that comes from Washington are in vain! The most seen pages on both of our sites (Portuguese and English) are the VISA pages. We have IRC and English Program pages but the number of viewers is insignificant.
