Well there's http://enemyster.com/, though the last time I tried I couldn't figure out the "beta password". Probably nothing there....

And how is this different from the old http://www.sixdegrees.com ? Sounds like the same ol' exploit-your-FoaF-network.

seems lyk 6degreez toop meeple.

Friendster's in need of some parody. They'd really benefit from a shift to users downloading an app and hosting their content locally, maybe cache a given user's files within their immediate peer group so it'd be available even if they're offline? A shift to e2e would help eliminate thelag/outage issues. Allow for file sharing, chat, external links, and more robust potential for comments/interaction and it'd be great. As of now it lacks any real function beyond a providing a remarkably static database reminding you that some of your friend's friends are dickweeds.

Have you checked out their tour and testimonials?? They've bypassed waiting for someone else to create a parody, and made one themselves... The first testemonial says:

I was invited to join Friendster from a friend and found it to be a "GREAT" way and a "FUN" way to meet new people and to network.

Why the heck are 'great' and 'fun' in quotes??
Simply awesome.

Has anyone noted the utility of these things for STD epidemiology? Though that presupposes that this thing has _ever_ actually fostered human interaction much less sex, which would be more sad than anything else. Can you imagine the sad, grey, hopeless, lifeless, 'GREAT', 'FUN' specimens who would rely on the offices of Friendster, Inc. to cure their social life deficiencies?

the petster.com domain appears unoccupied.

I would agree that friendster is kind of already a parody of itself.

Friendster is such a hoot too. The whole testimonials thing is broken in how they use it. It's become just a generic comments field. I've read testimonials that are like:

"Wow, I don't know this person, but anyone with those interests who is that cute must be cool. So I added them as a friend."

Uh. okay. So it isn't really a friend of yours, yet you've linked to them as a friend. huh?

A lot of people I know have expressed interest in adding their pets as their friends. If Petster existed I bet it would be popular. I guess you can add your pet to Friendster as it stands, but there's no good answer to the "What's your age?" question.

there ought to be a sheister.com for meeting lawyers.

I'm just angry that it takes your own friends to join and play... What about us losers?

Fiendster and Enemyster are probably owned by Friendster. Bastards.
