Friendster Text Alert Dissappointment

Last week i posted i here about the Friendster Text Alert, the new friendster feature for Philippines and whole Asia. With this service and new feature, it will help all user to get an update of his or her profile and its friends. Unfortunately, the service is only good for all of those paying users. Meaning, you can avail this feature if you subscribe in it. Every alert and update will be send to you directly via mobile phone but is charge for every alert you receive. Every message receive is charge. In the Philippines they charge PHP 2.50 (Globe/Smart), PHP 2.00 (Sun) per text message.

With this kind of amount they charge to every subscriber, it only gives us disappointment. Service in almost all social network are free, so i guess friendster shoul also follow and just give this feature for free.

The Friendster Classified

Ever visit the classified section of friendster? From time to time, an avid friendster user will visit this section. Mostly business related. But did you know that the classified section of friendster can offer more service? Yes, it will cater still on socializing, and this is the personal section. In this section you will see many subsection will cater to your need. For example, you need a female friend near your location, then friendster classified will help you with that. Whatever your preference, it will give you a service. But there is a cons in this service too. You may ask, what is it. Then i can say that its the poeple.Classified section of friendster lack people. Unlike other classifed places such as the Craigslist, friendster don't have a good number of people visiting the classified ads compare to Craigslist which one of the most visited calssified sites in the Internet.

Friendster may have not eneough people in its classified section but you may sometimes see what you look for.
