I am currently starting to work on my thesis. It is an event for Friendster and the concept is “Real Life.” Why Friendster? Well, Friendster as a Social Networking Site interests me. I wondered why many internet users join in these kinds of sites. When I first join Friendster, I really didn’t know what it was. I remember when I was in High School, on our last day in school, my friends asked me “May Friendster ka? Add kita!” It became a trend and so I guess that’s the reason I joined Friendster. I added my friends, my old classmates and people I don’t know started adding me. At first I didn’t accept those people I don’t know. But eventually I thought that there’s nothing wrong if I accept their invitation. After all that’s what Friendster stands for.
Other Social Networking Sites started to come out and became a trend to the people. It’s also helpful for the people to keep in touch with their friends. I also joined other Social Networking Sites ‘cause a lot of my friends also join those sites and I wanted to know the differences of these sites. For me, Friendtser is user-friendly and it gives the image of simplicity ‘cause its straight forward. Just upload pictures and videos, post blogs or on bulletin boards, give comments, can easily add Friendster users, add appslications, etc. There are other features that Friendster doesn’t have and the other Social Networking Sites have. But that doesn’t stop Friendster because it is the leading online Social Networking Site in Asia, especially here in the Philippines.
In High School, I participated in interactions and soirees. It was fun because of the activities we had. I also had the chance to meet new people, the opposite sex, since I was in an all-girl school. It was a good experience, to interact with the opposite sex. The activities we had build my self-confidence in speaking with them and being comfortable around boys. So now in my thesis, I thought of my event to have a concept like this… to interact not just with the opposite sex but also with the same sex. Making friends is not just for the opposite sex, right? In this event you can do activities with your friends and you new-found-friends. It will be an exciting and interesting event. As I go further to my study about Friendster, I will share to you my ideas and the things that I’ve learned about this matter.
