Friendster to Launch Cell Phone Service in Philipines

Email This Entry

Posted by Stowe Boyd

I missed thisannouncement back in November. Friendster is launching its first mobile service in the Philippines to test cell phone integration with social networking service -- Friendster is making lemonade from lemons, since the service has been overrun with Philipino teenagers rather than the types of business people they were hoping for.

Actually consdering the ease of monetizing phone users and the extremely high net/tech usage by Philipinos I think this may be a hit. I'll be watching it closely.
