I don't really need a social network for the people I'm already in close proximity with. But, I'm glad they're making an attempt here, at least.

‘Friendster is invite-only. You can join by linking with a real-life friend in person.‘

Good idea but not practical for me as my friends and family are widely dispersed.

I remember when the original Friendster came out, everyone I knew signed up, only to realize...wait, what can we actually do with it other than look at our social graph?

If Friendster had figured out a stickier use case, they could have preempted MySpace and Facebook before they ever got going.

Aaaaand no Android support. Dead on arrival for me.

You know what? Good for Friendster. It can't be worse than what we have now. But, also, good luck with that. Facebook may be terrible (it is definitely terrible), but it's where everybody's friends are. I dunno how you reproduce that network effect today, but maybe they do.
