Before MySpace and Facebook, there was
Friendster, a
pioneering social networking website for consumers. First launched in 2002, Friendster attracted tens of millions of users over the years, but it never quite grew into the online juggernaut it could have been. Having raised close to
$50 million in venture capital, Friendster was
acquired by Malaysian payments company MOL Global at the end of 2009 for a
reported $40 million. Fast forward to today, and it
looks like Friendster won't be so much about sharing with friends anymore. In a message to registered members (hat tip to
@Mazi), the company is asking all users to install a custom application to export all their profile data, as most of it will be unequivocally
deleted on May 31, 2011.
