Friendster Launches its' own Blogs

Check it out!!!

Published on March 2, 2005 By Shakezula In Current Events

I went to Friendster earlier this week and found out they were going to be having a blog program of their own. Launched on March 1st, the Friendster Blogs are wonderful. In about 5 minutes my blog was all set up and ready to go. Anyone interested in having a blog should consider the Friendster Blogs as a clear choice above the rest. One thing particularly handy and thoughtful is the fact that to post pictures you don't need to go through an outside source like so many other blogs. The Friendster Blogs are wicked awesome.

if a site like that could replicate the forum system that JU has without the incredibly slow load time and constant bugs and crashes, this site would dry up. Forums are the only thing JU has going for it.

You can do that with modblog.

I agree that the forums is what makes this site FAR different then the others. Plus, there are people FAR more likely to read your stuff and comment as well.

The main difference between JU and other blogs is that JoeUser is a blog community. And as a result, all blogs help promote each other with an automated system.

And that results in a big difference between what you have on Friendster or Modblog -- people are actually likely to read what you write here.

As for the forums being slow, indeed, it is frustrating. We're working on that.

the flip side is that in a community, you wind up with cliques and feuds and that sort of thing

with blogspot, my visitors and i maintain a bit of an anonymous distance, and that seems to keep them a bit more civil

at least, comparing comments, I get many more positive ones over there than here, because people here tend to comment on the person, not the article
