Filipinos: Screw Multiply, Use Friendster
While bottom-tier social network Multiply stepped into deep shit by partnering with ABS-CBN, OpenSocial-enabled Friendster is expanding its Philippine office. Friendster serves 10.7 million Filipinos — and despite their history of technical glitches and patent trolling, I like the way they show how people are connected.

Friendster has recently expanded its applications. At the least, I see it as an effort to attract more Filipino users who find it entertaining (albeit sometimes inconvenient) to use extra applications in their page. At the most, I see it as an effort to sustain their crowd. Nonetheless, I speak not on behalf of the millions of internet users Just my two cents.
The reason why I wound up using Friendster is that because, as an online gamer with a Livejournal account, fellow gamers would often pester me for a Friendster page, and from that I have to make an account to satisfy them.
But honestly, like my (laundry bar and noodle soup) choices in life, I find it better off having BOTH Friendster and Multiply accounts than to get into the debate as to which SN is the best (just like the endless, pointless, stupid arguments as to which local television station is supreme).
yeah i think friendster is much better than any other social networking site …
myspace sux all time …
I still love Multiply more than Friendster. ♥
take note, love
I spend more time updating and browsing through my Multiply rather than Friendster. I dunno, but I now find Friendster to be boring. There’s nothing I can do while I’m logged in. I just check: who viewed me, the birthdays of some of my friends, and if there are any messages or comments left.
Whereas in Multiply, I check other people’s posts, even if not from my friends, as long as it seems interesting. And here in Multiply, I see to it that my contacts are really my friends, because in Friendster, padamihan lang ng friends. haha. oops, guilty ako dun ah.
