Is Friendster Still Around?

I suppose that’s a rhetorical question, but does anyone care? I find it
especially odd because this evening I got email from a LinkedIn contact that
he’s moving everything to Friendster. If people are actually still using
Friendster, I guess that’s ok. if it works for them. It never worked for me
because I wasn’t a 20-something in the meat market looking to expand my
libidinuous horizons. That seemed to be the primary audience.
I was just quite taken aback. I haven’t heard Friendster mentioned by anyone
in two years. now to have a tech sector person I consider a leading edge ype
leave LinkedIn for Friendster just feels so very 2002.

I won’t be rushing back to check it out anytime soon myself. LinkedIn has
been the only “social network” I’ve used for quite some time, and the only
one of the mix that ever showed a hint of usefulness for me. Your mileage
may vary.
