For many years I've been always checking and updating my friendster account because i had so much fun with it. this is where i keep in touch with a lot of my friends, relatives, and anybody else that I knew here. But then, a month ago, when my friend introduced to me myLot, at first I did'nt articipate that much because I dont have any ideas what to discuss. But then as I realize that I'm earning even just a cent, I then always participated in discussions, response to discussions and even complete some tasks. Now that im such a mylotter, I now seldom check my friendster accout, and haven't updated it ever since. How about you guys?

I think they are incomparable to each other. They're of different types. Friendster is a social networking site, while mylot is sort of like a forum. In friendster you share photos and look up things with friends etc. In mylot however, you discuss topics with other people. One can live with the other simultaneously. I guess if you want to compare something, it should be on the same level, like that of Facebook and Friendster. Now, if you'll ask me, I do have Friendster and Facebook as well, but I'd prefer Facebook over Friendster since you can do more things in Facebook. As for mylot, I could compare it with one site that I used to go to as well. It's at Tsinoy Forum. Well, I'd prever myLot over Tsinoy since the topics here are more varied and of course, we do earn here compared to other forums. One site which could be comparable to myLot would also be the Platinum Lounge, they also claim to give earnings but I don't like their formatting, it's chaotic and confusing. I'd still prefer myLot over those. So there you have it. Good luck!

Oh, thank you for the best response, I truly appreciate the gesture. Yeah me too, I no longer spend time with friendster. But I go to facebook and mylot simultaneously. hehehe.. addiction is such a difficult thing to pass.

Ah! I see. You've got a point there laydee. So you mean that I should rephrase my question like - "For those who have both friendster and myLot accounts, which of these two sites do you spend more time with?" But then I have to keep my title brief also thats why it comes short to that. Actually I have both accounts and I regularly check both sites, but lately I've realized that I'm not that interested of friendster now compared to myLot. I spent more time here, no longer cares about my friendster. That is the reason why I come up with the question. Thanks by the way! Your response really had a point.

Good answer. haha. I can tell you love mylot a lot because you participate in so many discussions. I've never been on friendster, so I'd have to say mylot all the way!

Well for those who haven't tried friendster, its also cool. But because you can't earn any from it. So I guess myLot is way cooler. I can't wait to get my first earnings here!

I haven't tried orkut or facebook so I don't know. I only have a friendster and myLot account that's why im asking for those who have both account. Which of the two do you spend more time with, that was what I was actually trying to ask. But then I kept my title short end it ended like that.

I prefer myLot. myLot is more of a site where you can meet people, learn new things and also helps you enhance your english communication and grammar. It is a good practice too. Unlike friendster, which I also have an account there, it is just to meet other people. And for me that is basically it. I don't get to learn things unlike myLot. I am starting quit friendster because I can't even do anything in there, just checking if you have message or not then leave. Not like myLot, you check if there are responses and answer them at the same time.

Well, most of the responses here, or all of the responses here votes for myLot. I guess this is the reason why where all here. If not, then why even bother to reply here...

I prefer both since when i login to mylot, i only look for some discussions and also to respond but friendster is different since i look for some friends to add into my network and any messages from my friends if any. Mylot is special since i login every day atleast once and not a take anything away from friendster since i make sure to login to it atleast once a week since there is no point logging every day unless you receive bulk of messages.

For me friendster and mylot is a different thing because here in mylot I can earn money and on friendster I can connect with my friends. But I spend most of my time here on mylot. I open my friendster to check if i have new messages or new comment but that would only take few minutes to do it. I love mylot and friendster.

I prefer mylot. As you said this is not just a social networking site we can also earn money here. I still do check my friendster account regularly but i spent more time in mylot account.

Same here Reyah, mylot is cool, we earn thats one thing for sure... But I also never forget my friendster cause my friends there aren't here, and so I still keep in touch with them there.

I enjoy using them both.. but since i don't have a real stable job and i need money to pay off our bills and support my medical needs, i'd choose mylot over friendster.. yes, i do enjoy friendster but it will not help me to make some money online.. basically, it's used for fun(connecting with family, friends and colleagues), etc.. while mylot can help me to earn real cash online.. plus, it can help each and everyone of us to improve our communication skills(reading and writing skills), language skills, etc..

Yup, we all need money. And its the earnings that primarily gets me goin here compared to friendster. Though I'm still a member here for 1 month, I haven't tried yet to get my earnings here.

I like the mylot.com. beside we can communication with our friend we also can make money. Rather than use friendster, i now use the facebook, it is more easy to use. and i can choose my friend from my old college. and get chat online.

I also like very much myLot, but the difference is, my friends in friendster are really my friends in life rather here in myLot, they're the ones i've met online. It's also different thing when you interact with your old pals since elementary, highschool, college. But here in myLot, I can discuss whatever I want, and earn too. It's just that my friends in friendster dont have an account here, even when I invited them. Guess they're not interested.

well, I prefer both friendster & MyLot. Both have unique services. I like the friendster, aside from making friends around the globe I'm also happy to see mhy friends pretty faces. On the other side, myLot is the best site for me because it pays after having participated to discussions of friends all over the world.

Having a lot of friends around the whole world is cool. Discussing issues and stuff. Hey, maybe that's the reason why they call it myLot because we'll have a lot here. Friends, knowledge, discussions and many more...

Good for you, you've got time for both. In that way, you can be with your friends on friendster and then earn at the same time with myLot. I just get bored sometimes at friendster when I check them and there's no activities goin on. Happy MyLotting!

I still do Friendster but between the two, I think most people will prefer mylot. Aside from the intellectual practice that mylot can offer, small compensations can even be expected just by sharing your ideas.

I have friendster and mylot account and most of the time I am here in mylot. I just check friendster for new messages, friend requests and comments. I stay in friendster for a long time when I am uploading pictures because I maintain my own account and my baby's account too. I was the one who created both accounts and I really enjoy maintaining both. It is nice to have such friendster account because you can communicate with your friends and relatives and also update each other with the latest happenings in your life. With mylot you can earn money and learn and enjoy.

mylot pays friendster doesn't. In my friendster account I know my friends there personally unlike in mylot my friends here are all friends from cyberspace whom I haven't seen. But these days, I'm mostly here in mylot than in friendster.

I used to have a lot of accounts in a different websites just to connect with my friends, relatives and meet new people. But then, I realized that mylot is a great website.It does not only connect me with my loved ones but it also gives me an opportunity to earn. For me, this is a great thing because checking my account, responding with any discussions and do bloggings does not only enhance those skills I have but I also able to share my thoughts. So, I prefer this site than friendster or any other site.
