What’s next for Friendster & 5 Web 2.0 Ideas

Listen to article

I’m in a blogging binge.

Just read the latest two entries I wrote over at PinoyTechBlog:

I just can’t get it over with that Friendster split-up and even our sources can’t squeeze much out of the parties involve. Still, it’s a shame that despite 5 Million Friendster users in the Philippines, they can’t make a profitable business out of it.

Does this not spell doom to the rest of sites running on the same eyeball model? Will PEx finally be the next victim? I hear they’re struggling to even buy a new server for the website.

Today’s market niches are not geographic, but psychographic. Any site that taps into peoples’ intentions will succeed. Any site that restricts itself to peoples’ locations will fail.

Fortunately for Pinoy Tech Blog, being a Filipino and being a techie are both states of mind. ;)
