Friendster offers exporter application in their site that allows users to download their content or move it to third party sites such as Flickr or Multiply. Friendster did not specify a new identity in question, but it seems to position itself as a destination for unofficial games.
Sites that collect nearly 50 million dollars from investors for years, but technical problems and a general failure to compete with the time destined to run well status.
Traffic Friendster and the number of active users remained low. Current owners, Malaysia internet company, MOL Global, bought the site late in 2009 reported a price of 26 million dollars.
