A lot of people are abandoning their Friendster accounts for newer, snazzier online communities. There are valid reasons why they do so. Actually, I’m one of those who are spending more time with my Facebook or some other community recently, out of disappointment with Friendster.
But a network of your own built over the years is invaluable, even if it’s just composed of a hundred people or less. So I drop by every now and then, and poke around a bit. And I’ve come across some pleasant surprises.
Friendster may be relatively unknown outside Asia, but for a long time, for many Asians, it’s the equivalent of Facebook and MySpace for North Americans and Europeans.
If you have a Friendster account, go revisit. Head over to my Friendster blog to find out why.
