Ever wonder why Facebook is now popular than Friendster?
Quality not Quantity- Back in Friendster times, the main
goal was just to get as many friends a s possible: We just wanted to show the
world that we have a second, third, fourth, fifth up to the ninth with previous
accounts that reached the limit for the number of friends. In Facebook, we
treasure each contact and know all th people in our life. We learned from
Friendster that is quality over quantity.
Newsfeed
self control- In freindster, flooding the bulletin board is acceptable. But do
not we hate flooding? In facebook, flooding the newsfeed is like humiliating
yourself. It just show how undisciplined you are.
Quiz
Interface- Friendster surveys and quizzes require you to open all others posts
and pages to know if they have the same answer/ results. Facebook surveys and
quizzes allow you to click and get results in second. You can even easily see the
headshots of friends with the same results as mine.
Status
update history- facebook allow you to constantly update status and keep track
pf previous status updates. In Friendster, where shall we put it? In shout
outs? Well sadly shout out, one erased, is gone forever where not a single
trace is available. Sharing images and video- You can easily share and make
your friends know that you have posted a new picture, video, you commented on
so forth and so on. Live chat- Facebook lets you see your friends who are
online and who are not while friendster
does not. Less spam- Friendster inboxes are flooded by spam messages
that are really not meant personally for us.
Now which one’s
better? Facebook or Friendster?
