This paper aims to present information to the general public about Friendster 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.

A Private Network, the network where Friendster is classified under, deals with referrals and existing connections. For instance, Ana want to meet Sam who is a friend of her friend, John. Ana then asks John to introduce her to Sam. This is very similar to the face-to-face social situation where one meets new people through the friends they already have. On Friendster one can only view the profiles that person is connected to.
