Have you exported your Friendster account?

Earlier this week, Friendster announced that they will be deleting all blogs, photos, comments and groups created or uploaded on their site. They then asked users to export them before May 31.

When I got the news, I thought I should go and log in again to my Friendster account and export my files. Friendster was also trending on Twitter that day because of the announcement.

Four days later, I still haven’t gone to the site downloaded my data. Then I realized, why bother? I don’t think I even started a blog there or uploaded a lot of important photos. I wasn’t a Friendster-type of person then, the same way I’m not really a Facebook-type now.

In any case, do people really bother to go thru all that or they just let their account die a natural death? I reckon, one day, this too will happen to Facebook and Twitter.

    I think FB and Twitter will also suffer the same fate if another interesting social network will disrupt them, which I think is not going to happen soon. :)

    It is always dangerous to export these online data between websites. My website
