Even with german actors i could't get more than 3...

cheers, Thomas

There are now 3238 people in my personal network, but only 3 from germany. :-(

cheers, Thomas

According to their database, the maximum is 8. I couldn't get above 2 (not that I really tried, though. Work does get in the way of this sort of thing!).

ermm. edward norton and vin diesel both get 9's. not from bacon. but they have someone who is nine from them.

Ditto. Yay for viral marketing, I guess. Y'all caught me in a state of boredom. Dang it... hurry up, laundry!

Blah. Might as well join in and see what happens

Someone tell me why it is that I want to sign up for this. I don't get it. I already dislike most of my friends' friends. Why should I expect this to be any different? Are there chat rooms? Or am I supposed to contact people one-on-one?

It's more than just meeting your friends' friends. Maybe there's a friend of one of your friends' friends that you'd get along with? Or for us single people, there might be someone 5 degrees away from us through one of our friends that we could start a relationship with. It's all about networking. If anything, it's neat to just see who you're connected to. <shrug>

There aren't any chat rooms, it's all testimonials, bulletin board postings and one-on-one conversations.

okay, so i signed up for this thing, so you guys better accept my friend's approval. darwin at clsfs.com

If anything, it's neat to just see who you're connected to.

Yeah. I thought it was neat, as well. Then I discovered that half the people I'm "connected" to in my area are links through "Los Angeles", which means, for all intents and purposes, once I hit that link, anything beyond is just a random stranger. Sort of defeats the purpose, IMHO.

Yeah, that's one part I don't like about it. I look over those kinds of connections unless it's something rare and/or a hobby of some sort.

Considering everybody in my list is from here and nobody is actually in the UK apart from me...

Try tribe.net for a better designed if lesser populated solution to the problem. (They've only been online for something like two months vs. a year for Friendster.) The tribe.net solution would be to have a "Los Angeles" tribe to which you could join yourself, but which wouldn't appear explicitly as a node in the friend graph.

Friendster, such as it is, still has some value, but it doesn't get really interesting until your friends start discovering you. My sister and a New York friend of mine separately "invited" me to join Friendster. Okay, sure, whatever. After I was there, several other friends "found" me there and added me in. Clicking on them, I was able to find one or two common friends and add them to my own list. And, so it went.

Friendster is a toy. tribe.net has the potential to be a fair bit more than just a toy. (A friend of mine is one of the founders of tribe.net, so I probably can't repeat all the grandiose plans he told me.)

Someone tell me why it is that I want to sign up for this. I don't get it. I already dislike most of my friends' friends.

LOL. The only use I can thing for it is to rid my life of all those Sobig bounce messages.

OK, just for a lark, I've joined both friendster and tribe.net. Feel free to add me to your networks.... I'm julf at julf dot com

i'm now in tribe.net, too...
