irrelevant

I just got a note from Friendster about some upgrade, "...we've upped our photo limit to 25+...". I'm fairly sure no one cares anymore, but what they really need is to start working on services to tie Friendster in from other web sites, rather than continuing to try to be self-contained.

They won't listen, of course, 'cause everyone in the "social networking" space is trying to own the data, and thus they'll fade further into irrelevance and not be mourned when they disappear. But they do have options, and they could still save the company.

Friendster.. It was really kewl for a while, fun toy. I haven't logged in in a LONG time. - Nancy was getting "will you be MY friend?" requests from guys. - which is of course, what it turned into: the lowest denominator defined it.
