Friendster Closing Down

abe1

We all know how intergrated Friendster is in Philippine life. For some, it can be said, that is the internet. It is the #1 form of communication for Pinoys espcecially for our friends & families abroad.

What would we do if Friendster Closed Down? i.e. their $10 million runs out?

100% agree

pero di naman siguro? if ever ang daming namang choices. at habang dumaraan ang panahon ang dami namang site na nadedevelop.

give chance to others naman. masyado nang mayaman ang mga developer ng friendster. joke!

actually... friendster started the trend that others drew their concepts from.. especially Myspace...but now Myspace is reaping from the seeds planted by friendster... i think i read a month ago that they have to borrow several million dollars to keep up with their operating costs...and that they are more popular in Asia than America...i think a lot of it has to do with Pinoys...one way of helping them is to invite more members.. kasi pag nalaman ng mga advertisers na marami silang internet traffic e magpapa-advertise sila sa friendster and friendster in turn can benefit by charging their own rate for advertisement... kaya magpalaki kayo ng friends list nyo at lagi mag login sa kanila...

Wag niyo tong patulan. Isa lang to sa mga paraan niya para magpunta kayo dun sa website niya.

Friendster? Magsasara? Nasisiraan ka ba ng bait?

It's true that inviting more members into friendster will help ONLY if the members are from the US. I guess that's the problem, there are not enough American members in friendster and it is being overrun by filipinos. The advertisers care mostly about American internet users since they are the target market.

Pointless

This seems like a valid thread naman, especially since Friendster is a big part of the Filipino online life...

As for answering this thread... Well, I jumped at the Friendster bandwagon during it's younger days, but nowadays I'm not checking my account anymore so I wouldn't really feel it if Friendster closes down...

It would really suck if they close this site... badtrip yan! I've edited so much already in my account tsaka lahat ng friends ko andun na.... ang hirap maglagay ulet ng new account sa ibang sites... i hope this isnt true and sana they can do something about their problem...
