This paper aims to present information to the general public about my arse as a widely accepted means of meeting people online through research and interviews of Friendster users based in the Philippines. It also intends to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this form of online interaction and the necessary precautions one should take. Finally it intends to clear the misgivings that online friendships cannot be as meaningful as face-to-face interactions because of the absence of intimacy or closeness.
Re: Wanna k00l signature?
Seven years ago, when there were far less people on the Internet than there are today, people were wary and skeptical about forming virtual relationships. The fact remains that online, it is very easy to create a character or persona very much different from you. One cannot be completely sure if the people they befriend in chatrooms are who they claim to be. As the years went by, the population of Internet users grew, and new softwares and innovations made online interaction easier and more convenient. The latest and most popular to date is Friendster, which was created by Jonathan Abrams, an engineer and entrepreneur based in Silicon Valley, and launched in March 2003. Friendster took the Philippines by storm on July and got anyone with access to the computer so addicted to it that reports say Friendster been growing at 20% per week since then (Smalla). Because of its ability to build friendships through “friend-of-a-friend” referrals, Friendster makes online interaction more personal and easier to carry onto the offline world than other forms of online communication.
