Don't Bite the Hand that feeds you.
by Nael November 14, 2005 4:58 PM PST
If your site was easy to use like myspace and had video and music playback. No problem.

And if you did not fire your employees for writing blogs, no problem but no, you fired her. http://news.com.com/Friendster+fires+developer+for+blog/2100-1038_3-5331835.html
Why?

So you lost me and many others. I do not care for your service, nor will I pay for it and one more thing, stop sending me SPAM to come back because I won't.

And I dislike the fact you had an invite only model in the begining and then suddenly wanted us to be your users.

Don't bite the hand that feeds you and that is your users and employees.

Yahoo 360 is so much better and is always available when i need it and myspace, well it's just EASY to use.

Overpriced

Even at 50-100MM, they're still overpriced... Amazing the subtle but critical differences between myspace (started by hollywood entertainers) and friendster (started by silicon valley engineers).

www.tribe.net

A highly functional site that does not suffer outages other than planned ones for upgrades, has better functionality than friendster, more community oriented than a dating site, and is just way better.

And unlike Myspace.com is more adult oriented.

Big Corps Spending Money
by silex63005 April 4, 2006 12:21 PM PDT
It seems that big corps are getting their hand in the cookie jar buying up everything that could possibly be the next myspace. The new kid on the block [urbnites].com is rumored to already be in the process of being sold after only being online for < 1 month.
