Just call her "Lady in Red."
Anna Chapman, the flame-haired beauty accused of spying for the Russian government, was no low-profile operative content with simply hiding in the shadows.
On the contrary, Chapman seem to court the limelight.
When she wasn't allegedly meeting with her Russian handlers or being duped by undercover agents, the 28-year-old divorcee was gallivanting around New York.
Chapman has been photographed partying it up at trendy events, and posted risqué pics of herself on her Facebook page.
Chapman and her alleged co-conspirators were charged with conspiracy to act as an agent of a foreign government, as well conspiracy to commit money laundering.
The charges carry a maximum penalty of five and twenty years in prison, respectively.

Google To Launch Facebook Competitor
Google Me: Google To Launch A 'Facebook Killer'?

WHAT'S YOUR REACTION?
But Google may be bringing the fight to Facebook, too.
According to a tweet from Digg founder Kevin Rose, Google is preparing to launch a rival social networking service called "Google Me."
Rose wrote in a tweet:
Ok, umm, huge rumor: Google to launch facebook competitor very soon "Google Me", very credible source
What is Google planning? And how would a new "Facebook competitor" tie in with Google's existing social networking services, Orkut and Google Buzz?
The Next Web speculates that Google might be planning an integration of the two, which could potentially give it an initial user base of 200 million people--already half as big as Facebook, with its 400 million members:

If Google truly is getting into a war with Facebook, and there's no reason to believe that it isn't, then the combination of both Orkut and Buzz would be the obvious choice.
Knowing that a Google account is required to use Orkut, and a Gmail account is required for Buzz, we can safely assume that we're looking at roughly 200 million users to any service that would combine the two. This number could sway one direction or the other, as a Google account does not equate to a Gmail account, but I'd say that 200 million is a solid guess.
Chris Saad speculated in a tweet that the "Facebook killer" referenced by Rose may be an "upgrade" to Google's "Google Profiles" feature. Louis Gray adds, "I don't know if Google Me exists or not. I would not be surprised if it does, but I also would not be surprised if this simply relates to the continued evolution of Profiles, with [Rick Klau, who recently joined the Google Profiles group] and team on watch."
