I joined initially because I can't see the chicks' picture until I joined (ok, did I say I'm "cu-ri-ous"), but then I started looking around to see what it has to offer. For those who didn't know, Friendster is a virtual community gears toward helping people finding date and love on-line. <br /> <br /> Some commentary <a href="http://arstechnica.com/archive/news/1067400954.html">here</a>.<br /> <br /> The idea is if you're looking for a date/love interest, your friends are a good resource to tap into since they have other friends. If there is a virtual community that link all the people you know via all your buddies, they can help screen a potential date/love interest for you, and your chance of finding someone great is increased (instead of looking for stranger on ICQ/MSN). So, even if you're already in a relationship, it doesn't mean you have no reason to join, you can be there to "help out" other friends. <br /> <br /> Friendster provides an environment that one can see all people in a so called "personal network", basically bunch of Friendster users you sort of "know" because of a mature link between you and this person through your/his/her buddies. You can send message to the person to ask to befriend w/ him/her, or ask your friend to "introduce" you; Basically, a virtual "matching" environment.<br /> <br /> Sounds convincing? I am not sure how well it actually works. Ok, I do not have statistics to support my point. It just from my observation on how people interact there. It looks to me that many joined as a cluster of friends, they remain closely together. Friendster becomes another ICQ/MSN that people gather. Yes, you can search for new friends more easily (not just a stranger in ICQ/MSN, which is the selling point of Friendster). But how many of them are actually making new friends out of their personal network?<br /> <br /> One thing to note after checking out my personal network is that the world is indeed a small place. Your social circle seem to be greatly determined by your culture, heritage, and background. I have seen person that link to me via 2 entirely difference friends which are not related. It is interesting to see this as an evident that how our society is knit together in a mesh of social networks and cluster of people. http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/189634/ Butalbital.
