As you can see on that page, the Four-in-Hand knot is an asymmetrical knot. It's very simple to tie, and uses less length in the knot. I'd say the vast majority of ties you will see worn today are tied with the Four-in-Hand knot. I really think it's because most men don't know any other knot, or they prefer the simplicity of it. But I think it's a bit of a casual 'haphazard' look. It seems very popular to wear this knot with a shirt that's unbuttoned at the very top button, so the tie is worn a bit loosely and casually.
You guys might want to check out this thread from a year ago where we had some interesting discussion on tie knots.
