Hello everybody, I'm new to friendster but noticed that I'm not able to access the Who's Viewed Me link. I have my settings set so that I am not anonymous. Did they disable it in the U.S.? If so, how long ago? Thanks!

I found a site that I like so much that I'm helping them spread the word. Karmaloop.com is an online urban boutique with tons of different labels: triple5soul, kangol, puma, paul frank, & tons of boutique stuff you can't find outside of Broadway in NYC. You can get 10% off when using my rep code- BLOOM

Are you a single male and not sure what to do on New Year's Eve. My friends and I always go out and have a great time and lot's of fun. On New Year's Eve we will be attending the New Year's Eve party at the San Ramon Marriott and would love to meet 5 single men. We are all professional independent women between the ages of 35 and 45.
If you are between the same ages and attending the party let me know so we can meet. The party will only be that much more exciting if we are expecting you. Whether you come by yourself or with a group of friends, we look forward to meeting you.
Please respond and tell us more about yourself and I'll tell you how to identify us at the party.
See you there.

another site that is similar to friendster but is better, it comes with instant messaging feature, which is very cool. http://www.spinheart.com

In response to Ben Discoe (m14); I am *not* saying that anyone's sensitive personal data could be culled by a spider. The friendster folks did a nice job for the most part of drawing a solid line between presenting public and private data.

However, what they do leave sitting right out there is, in fact, a marketeers treasure tove. How much would any number of companies pay to know what is 'cool' at any given moment using near real-time metrics. If you scrape enough users favorites books, music, movies, etc. take along their sex, dating status, etc. dump all of that into a database and then query the heck out of that database, there you will find cultural metrics that companies would pay top dollar for. These metrics will be unlike any test marketing or product research analyst could determine.

The information that everyone is putting in their profiles is the same information we all hate divulging in questionaires, warranty cards, online surveys, because we know they are used to market products we don't want in a more sophisiticated manner. We know they are getting free data from us that they should be paying for. But with Friendster not being concerned about bots, one spider can gather perhaps the gratest single current data set about people's interests.

So I repeat my concern that by leaving the site open to sipder/robots the Friendster folks are compromising our uniqueness and assiting in the greater commodification of those things that are so special to us they make us feel cool and unlike any other.

B Concerned.

I guess I'm a completely pathological hermit, then.

Dav replying to Ben:
2. the number of people that are really into graphing their network is smaller than you might think.

Yes I disagree. There are many more reasons to get a copy of a friendster network other than making pretty pictures.

And more people want to see those pretty pictures than you might think. I've seen an assortment of things that graph, record, and otherwise give you information on your friends network on Livejournal; almost all of these things are very immediately DoS'd into a fine paste by teeming hordes of LJers who want to see where they stand in their social network. Take a look at the 'lj_nifty' community there, where most of these tools end up being promoted. Hell, I have convenient links to several of them in my LJ userinfo page. So do a lot of people.

Unless you're a completely pathological hermit, you care about the shape of your social networks. And tools like this provide ways to see it in a more concrete form than 'I like Phil, and I like Sue, and I like John, but John really hates Sue...'

re: fakesters: Fakester Manifesto

Dav: a combo applet of your blogosphere + my touchgraph would be neat.

I've also experimented with some derived measures of my friendster network like ranking users by the number of single people of the opposite sex in their immediate network, if they are single ("mackness").

Friendster really needs to come up with reasons to keep people around (besides dating) after they've collected all their real life friends. Something like the contact list your describe is probably the way to go. I know they've pulled a few fake accounts like "Austin Parties" that are being used for this purpose. I bet they want to add support for it formally and charge for the service in some way.

On another (related) subject: Fakesters

I feel strongly that both the pro-fakester people and the anti-fakester people (esp. Jonathan of Friendster) are both making a big deal out of nothing. The obvious solution is to simply add a flag for fakesters. This could be either voluntary, or a review process the way it currently is, except that fakesters are flagged rather than removed. Then, each person can choose whether they want to see their Friendster network with or without fakesters in it, and everyone is happy.

Personally, i have a "fake" flag in my spider output format, though of couse it can't be gathered, but manually filled in, so that visualization can toggle those nodes on or off depending on whether you want to see the "Real" social network or not.

Ah. The Friendster 'Bulletin Board' feature is supposed to already provide this capability: announcements to your personal network,
although clumsy. I can see your use of the spider in this way as somewhat valid, since it works around the following failings of
Friendster:

1. They need to make the 'Bulletin Board' more powerful, so that you can specify how many hops you want to sent do, and geographically filter.
2. They need to give users control of who they want to hear from, ie. how close a user has to be, either geographically or # of hops, to be allowed to send a Friendster message. This is necessary to balance out the power of the other features, and limit the appeal of spam-like uses. The current default of "any # of hops" is clearly wide open to mis-use.
To summarize, i think that when Friendster adds the safeguards that it clearly needs, the potential misuses and the appeal of large spidering will decrease.

-Ben

/m15: i feel this is not a big issue because of the anonymous nature of friendster. No real names or email addresses are exposed, so the marketing uses of the data are forced to be rather benign

OK, I didn't want to let this out but I feel like I need to make a point. My cousin is going to be producing an event this fall and I want to help her publicize it. I'm going to write a spider that will traverse my friendster network (it will actually start from a fakester account) and send a friendster email to every person who lists a bay area city as their location. I'm going to spam friendster.

This isn't a terribly clever idea, and I'm sure I'm not the only person who's thought of it.

(corrected spelling mistake)

1. adding an additional pause, when it already takes 3-20 seconds to retrieve a page, seems ineffective.

Yes indeed. I put the pause in before I ever ran the spider just in case. But my point was exactly that it didn't matter, jsut as being single threaded didn't matter.

2. the number of people that are really into graphing their network is smaller than you might think.

Yes I disagree. There are many more reasons to get a copy of a friendster network other than making pretty pictures.

3. the number of friendsters that it is worthwhile to graph is not that large - after a few hundred people, people are too unrelated to be interesting, so spider won't run that long.

Again, you're thinking only of how you intended to use it for your own purposes.

4. it's not clicking on every link it sees, but moves gradually outward into the network, gently

What do you mean? I didn't say every link, I said "every linked friendster." And certainly your spider is doing that? I can see how that could be misunderstood though, so to be clear the behavior I'm talking about is traversing the friend links.

5. yes, 'encouraging' Friendster to open a net interface would be a nice side-effect of this stuff

Crossing my fingers, but not holding my breath :)

Regarding B.Mindful's warning of "extensive data grabs can be done by any markting department", i feel this is not a big issue because of the anonymous nature of friendster. No real names or email addresses are exposed, so the marketing uses of the data are forced to be rather benign. I also fail to see what "treasure trove of personal data that most users would never make public" is on Friendster. I mean, favorite books and movies? Posting such things anonymously hardly seems like a sensitive disclosure.

Dav has a point. Does this follow the robots exclusion protocol?
(Not that www.friendster.com has a robots.txt now, but they
might someday.) How long does it wait between page hits? If
it takes 90 seconds to get a page, the site is clearly
overloaded, and a spider should wait an hour or more before
getting the next page. If the response time is speedy, one
page every minute to five minutes is my rule of thumb.

Dav, i think we simply disagree. I believe:
1. adding an additional pause, when it already takes 3-20 seconds to retrieve a page, seems ineffective.
2. the number of people that are really into graphing their network is smaller than you might think.
3. the number of friendsters that it is worthwhile to graph is not that large - after a few hundred people, people are too unrelated to be interesting, so spider won't run that long.

5. yes, 'encouraging' Friendster to open a net interface would be a nice side-effect of this stuff

You guys don't get it. It doesn't matter if the spider is single threaded. Mine was single threaded and it was even nice enough to pause between each request. The problem is that by releasing a spider so that anybody can just download it there could potentially be a huge net increase in traffic to the site. Especially, for that matter, something as easy to use as a windows EXE, where even a non-geek can just kick off a spider process (...well, at least they aren't coming with installers yet). Imagine if thousands of people are running these spiders to map their own networks. Sure the spider isn't doing anything other than clicking on links. But it's clicking on every linked friendster it sees, incessantly which is not normal human behavior. Seriously, how do you not see that this is going to be a giant increase in traffic (on an already overloaded set of servers)? It took me days to scrape just a small fraction of my network, by the way.

And FOAF is fine, however it doesn't address the only important issue with caching the data somewhere off of friendsters databases, which is the legal issue of using the company's data for non-approved purposes.

Maybe this is the right approach though. If all the scraping causes problems it may force Friendster to open a net interface to their data so people can build apps on top of it.

Edited by author 08-14-2003 02:19 PM
I just posted the source to a friendster scraper if anyone's interested. It's single threaded, so it doesn't totally whack their servers. I used it to gather the data for my touchgraph-based browser. And to the p2p/friendster caching idea: why not export it to FOAF?

I don't think that overloading Friendster's server is an issue currently, because of the slow response. 30 sec timeout wasn't long enough, i had to push it to 90! That means that the spider spends a long time waiting for each page - no worse than a real person trying to click around their network.

Now, if the spider tried to put in multiple simultaneous requests to try to go faster, then THAT would be obnoxious and inadvisable to distribute..

A couple months ago I started working on my own spider, but the purpose was to point out to Freindster and their users that their sandbox was still in the middle of a dangerous world. A quick series of extensive data grabs can be done by any markting department, cultural aggregator, trend research group, nefarious advertising agency to cull and sell a huge treasure trove of personal data that most users would never make public. I ran out of time to finish it up, but now almost anyone could build their own cultural aggregator and better target products to you you don't want.

The coolest thing about this was the link to the graphviz
site. I like graphing tools.

Edited by author 08-13-2003 04:59 PM
This sort of thing is always fascinating! I've fooled around with similar stuff based on Livejournal's "friends" network; see here for a graph I made of my own friends network near the beginning of the year. (requires SVG)

Also, this is a pretty cool Java program for interactively graphing LJ friend networks.

Whoa, I'm not so sure that was a good idea. When I wrote my friendster spider so I could graph my network I purposely didn't post the code in public (a few people got copies, including Ben iirc) because I was worried about the amount of traffic it would generate if everyone decided to crawl their network with it.

It seemed the only way to let everyone have at their own network without overloading the already beleaguered Friendster servers is to do some sort of shared p2p database away from the official site so that data already scraped by someone doesn't have to get scraped again. Of course, that gets into legal issues of using their data for a different 'service' (plus up-to-date issues for the data) so I never went forward with it.

I hope the servers hold up....

He might have gotten away doing some casual scraping himself, but publishing the tool is asking for trouble... Friendster certainly doesn't have bandwidth to spare for this guy, so I'm pretty sure they'll take steps to block his robot.

If friendster was cool and wanted to encourage this sort of thing, they might just open their MySQL port to the public (I think K5 may do this? someone does...)

Now output it in RDF using FOAF. Just think of all the fun stuff you could do with it then!

So this clown is why it's always so slow.
