it used to be friendster is the most widely used social networking site in the philippines. but early last year things change a lot . all of the sudden this not so known facebook became the most popular social networking site in the country . When facebook was so popular in other countries ,people here don't give too much attention to it till early last year. I didn't think that the people here would be one day be a heavy face book user .

It's because Facebook has a good applications. It has games.It has a simple, neat page. You can also use it for businesses, fan pages or something. It has chatbox as well for easy access. It is well made for short. :)

that's true . there are so many applications and things we can do in this one which was not available in friendster. maybe that's why all users from friendster have shifted to facebook.

I guess it's the trend. Before it was Friendster dominating the popularity and now Facebook replaces. What's next?
