Check Out What’s New On Friendster!

Hi Michael,

We’ve noticed it’s been a while since you logged into Friendster! You should check out the all-new “Fun” section, where you can use apps, browse forums, and share pictures with your network! Log in and check it out! That wouldn’t kill you, would it? To just log in? Friendster has been working for years on this and it would really appreciate it if you’d just log in and look at what it’s built for you.

Remember all the fun you used to have on Friendster? You set up a profile on November 14th, 2003 and haven’t logged in since June 6th, 2004. That seems weird, because Friendster was really popular and you seemed to be using it a lot and then all of a sudden you just stopped. We would understand if you went on vacation for a few weeks, but it’s been 6 years and 4 months since you logged in.

Meanwhile, from some light googling, Friendster can tell that you have profiles on MySpace, Facebook, and LinkedIn. That also seems weird because none of those things existed when you joined Friendster. A lot of people would say those sites wouldn’t even exist without Friendster. But it seems like you just abandoned Friendster and joined other sites without really thinking about how Friendster would feel.

We understand that these new sites have some features that Friendster doesn’t, but Friendster can change. Just look at Friendster’s new Fun section! That was pretty much just for you. Doesn’t that prove that Friendster is capable of change?
