Proposal on enhancing the features of Friendster


Ever since the birth of friendster five years ago, it has been in high praises among the people as it had allowed a space for relaxation and somewhere to rest from the fast-paced society. Enormous efforts have been put in to improve the various areas. However, we still feel that there is room for improvements.Therefore, we would like to put forth a few suggestions for your consideration.

To begin with, multiplayer games would be appealing to people, regardless of age limit. Mind-challenging games such as chess, reverse, boggle and etc. They accommodate the inquisitive thoughts of teenagers and mind-provoking urge of adults. Not only it is fun, it too allows friends interact and bring each other closer. It is another way of knowing new friends better other than chatting, exchanging email or by purely looking at pictures. Most importantly, games reduce the nervousness on faces when first trying to make friends with others. With reduced tension, making friends would be easier and more relaxing. This encourages friendship regardless of nationality. Games are also stress-relieving and a good way to strike off a conversation with your new found friends as you do not need to rack your brains. Thus, we believe that by adding this new feature, making friends would never be difficult even for the quietest and most shy people in the world.

Nevertheless, Tutorial of HTML code would be strongly recommended. Everyone likes to dolls up and look pretty or handsome, who doesn’t? Not only that, people would want their profile to be viewed. In order for that to happen, it must first be pleasing to the eye. However, that could not be done without having basic HTML knowledge. If only friendster could provide a “help in html code” section with step-by-step tips to improve the outlook of profiles. Many members would be active and that would appeal to more people to join. Furthermore, they will find learning HTML codes beneficial in other websites, but they find it no lessons anywhere else as conducive as friendsters’ lessons. They will only be devoted ‘students’ of friendster and would explore other people’s profile. Through this exchange of knowledge, they could make more friends.

Thirdly, photo editing picture would be very attractive. Not all people have Photoshop, a graphic editing programme, which makes beautifying of picture a chore or rather a tiresome feat. It would be much easier if Friendster provides the tool bars for the users to decorate and design their own photos. It may consist of some photo frames and a wide-variety of icons that people could surf and choose from to personalize their own pictures. This would definitely make uploading photos enjoyable. Most importantly, members would find the time spent in friendster worthwhile when they see their masterpiece. These would strongly press them to introduce this “addictive” website to their friends.

All in all, we strongly urge to add on these features we have proposed. We look forward to your reply. Thank You for your kind attention.

Proposal on introducing new features for Frienster

Friendster has been around for over half a decade and has enjoyed years of dedicated users and popularity among many countries. Although it is extremely predominant in Asian countries, especially Singapore and Philipines, there is still plenty of room for improvement to catch up with newcomers such as Facebook and Multiply. Thus, to connect with an ever-changing and modernizing target audience, the youths and young adults of today, Friendster needs to update itself with fresh interfaces and functions to re-carve out its name once again.

To begin with, we plan to introduce Friendster Cliques to enhance the realism of online social networking. Friendster Cliques groups people of the same interest together, such as fan club and even book clubs. They would have the option of creating their own bulletins or message boards as well as shared photo albums. Links to resources or file can also be uploaded. This feature can allow users more reasons to go online.

For our next idea, we want to have a special feature that categorizes friends to make searching for contacts easier and faster. This feature will allow users the option of categorizing friends on their contact lists into categories like "friends", "teachers" et cetra. Users will also be able to put up additional information or photos together with the names on the contact list. Through this feature, users will experience a more pleasant visit to Friendster. Searching for contacts will much much easier and users will not be put off by the extremely long list of unorganized contacts.

Another idea we would like to suggest is including a special feature which allows 'Friendster chat' and an online Friendster webcam and telephone system. This feature allows users belonging to the same clique to chat with each other and see each others' faces on the Internet. Through this function, people can chat with each other on the Friendster website and improve their friendships. This is also an incentive to draw users to Friendster as it is totally different from other websites.

In conclusion, thank you for taking time off to read our proposal. I hope that you will consider these ideas favourably.

Proposal on improving Friendster

Nowadays, social networking sites have become more and more popular than before. Due to this, our lives changed a lot. Those social networking website make us become more sociable among our friends. With sites such as Friendster, Blogger, Multiply, you can upload your favourite pictures and photos and write your own diary. Like this, your friends will know more about you and you can also keep in touch with you, so those sites provide a good opportunity for us to share our happiness with others. However, I find that there is always room for improvement.

As video conferencing is commonly used in MSN and QQ, so we propose to you to add video conferencing as a new feature to attract more users. Firstly, this feature allows users to communicate with each other and make sure that the person sitting in front of the computer is the one in the pictures posted. Hence, it protects some teenage users as they like to make friends with strangers. Video conferencing is also a more direct way to let the users’ friends know him. When you are online, your friends will see your vivid face while they are typing commands. This is really fun and more interactive than facing the computer all day long. They may lose the ability to communicate with people and turn antisocial over time. You don't want defeat the purpose of connecting people, do you? Also, this also creates a chance for those people who are busy working or studying in other countries to get to see their families. People no longer need to fly overseas to see their loved ones. As a result, more people will join Friendster.

Online shops are really hot these years for their convenience and discount, thus I strongly recommend Friendster cooperate with eBay and allow users to buy and sell stuff online. To start with, eBay is the biggest online trading website, many people like to search some cheap goods online or sell their things to others online. Different things can be posted up for sale with details about it and the price they are willing to give them up for. Currently, not many sites are providing such services so Friendster can give it a go. I am sure people would convert from using blogs to sell their stuff to using Friendster. Hence, Friendster can make a pact with eBay to make lives easier for online shoppers.

Lastly, Friendster should have a “Latest News” section to post news up. Most users of the Friendster are teenagers so all the more we should keep them in touch with current affairs and not let them cooped up in their own internet world. This feature will also attract people of older generations as they would visit Friendster to get a piece of the news daily.

I am looking forward to your reply. I will really hope that you can consider my ideas seriously and can accept my suggestion. Thank you.

Proposal on new features for Friendster

Social networking businesses have been flourishing in recent years and the number of social networking websites had increased significantly. Therefore, Friendster is facing intense competition. In order to keep up its appeal and to secure its position as one of the most popular social networking sites, we hereby would like to propose 3 new features for Frienster.

To make Friendster friendlier and safer, we would like to introduce the implementation of anti-virus programmes into Friendster. The online world is a place full of hidden dangers. Surveys have shown that 7 out of 10 people had been infected by online viruses before and 1 of them got the virus from social networking websites. With anti-virus programmes installed into Friendster, users will be able to communicate with their friends in a secured and protected area. This will attract new members as everyone would surely want a hassle-free online experience and this feature is only exclusively at Friendster.

To add on, we think that adding multiplayer games to the Friendster interface is a good idea that would definitely catch a lot of attention. Playing computer games is a favourite pastime for many people. Thus it will arouse the interest of many if multiplayer games are available on Friendster. This will provide Friendster users with more interactive opportunities, other than just sharing blogs and videos with friends. Through playing multiplayer games, users can get to know more people and establish more friendships, even globally. Especially if the games require players to work in teams, friendships are more easily fostered and strengthened. Hence this attractive feature is highly recommended by us as it is a guaranteed boost to Friendster's popularity.

Not forgetting the last idea of all, introduction of a webcam feature. This will be a new change for those who are bored with just looking at the uploaded photos of their friends. A webcam feature will allow users to have personal interaction with each other, enhancing communication. It is indeed more interesting to see your friends 'live' instead of staring dully at their photos, thus attracting more users to Friendster..

To conclude, we strongly urged you to seriously consider our proposal as it will receive enthusiastic welcome by Friendster users and also, greatly beneficial to Friendster and its users. Hence, we look forward to your reply and hope that you would give us your approval. Thank You.

Proposal on ideas to make Friendster friendlier

Friendster is one of the most popular social networking sites which has more than 36 million members worldwide. However, she is facing stiff competition from from an ever-increasing number of social networking sites such as Blogspot, YouTube, or Yahoo 360!. It is important for her to constantly progress, implementing more interesting features, in order to survive in such a competitive and globalised technology age. Hence, we would like to bring forward some of our ideas that might be beneficial in improving Friendster, in order to make her stay firmly in this cyberspace.

To start with, an introduction of an online forum would make Friendster more happening as well as the users happy. Not only does it expand one’s social network, but it also enhances social interaction between different people. It allows people from all walks of life to come together and discuss on topics that interest them, it may be the latest hot news, personal pastime, or even a help-line for those who in need of advice. For example, soccer fanatics can come together to share their opinions on the latest soccer match or discuss about their favourite soccer player. Furthermore, one can also create their own forum, which allows only specific people (for example, their friends) to access. This would definitely give them their own privacy.

To add on, Friendster has to be more user friendly. Many people had complaint about Friendster being difficult to access and use. Therefore, the implementation of a guidebook would definitely be useful for newcomers. It would contain a step-by-step procedure from how to upload your photos to how to customize your own homepage. Also, it would include a live Question And Answer (Q&A) section, whereby users can enquire about anything that they were doubtful about, and answers would be replied to them readily within minutes not days, as in the normal system today. In this way, users would not have to spend their time sending an email and waiting to receive the replies. It is not only timesaving, but also handy at the same time. Besides, the layout in Friendster is standardized and it would be boring for everyone to have the same layout. Hence, we appeal to you to improve on this area, by allowing people to rearrange or create their own layout. In this way, every homepage would be different and has its own character that suits its owner.

Lastly, holding and organizing competitions would definitely bring more life to Friendster. It would give everyone in Friendster an opportunity to show case their talents and creative juices. For example, through competitions like “The Best Blogger Award” or “The Best Layout Design” and even “The Most Fantastic Self-photo Taken”, cyber citizens would be encouraged to access Friendster more frequently, as well as, win attractive prizes and somehow or other, to be the limelight of the day. Winners will be voted by public and be featured on Friendster’s homepage for a month.

In conclusion, the addition of these features would definitely make Friendster a more user friendly and popular social networking website among the rest. Hence, we look forward to receive your reply and hope that you would consider our proposals favourably.

Proposal on new features for Friendster

Friendster is already an extremely popular website with many members. However, we feel that it can be further improved, thus, the reason for sending you this proposal. We wish to make Friendster an even better liked, interactive, user-friendly, and fun-to-use website.

In order to make Friendster an even more interactive site, Friendster can introduce the use of live webcams by members on their webpage, when they sign in.Currently, Friendster can only allow users to view each others’ pictures to know how they look like. However, with the use of live webcams, users would be allowed to see each other live. Moreover, this new feature of Friendster would enable members to communicate with each other without the hassle of leaving a testimonial. Therefore, this would make Friendster a more convenient and interactive website as it involves the members physically talking or communicating with someone else over the Internet.

To make Friendster a more fun-to-use website, games could be also included. The games available could be single-player or even multiplayer games. This would further provide more opportunities for members to interact with people they do not know and also create a platform for members to surpass being just ‘cyber-mates’ to being friends in real life. The types of games could be of different genres. For example, action, puzzles and sports. This would allow Friendster to be capable of catering to a wider range of people. The introduction of these games would definitely be able to entertain users while using Friendster.

Lastly, we have come up with an idea to make Friendster even more user-friendly. It is to enable Friendster to merge with other websites. Friendster could merge with various websites that are also popular among Internet users. Examples of the websites could be search engines like Google, email websites like Yahoo, Chat programmes(Msn) and even blogging websites. With the ability to merge with other websites, user would not need to open numerous windows to surf other websites. Users would thus be able to use Friendster and surf other websites at the same time and in the same window. This would also allow users to use features that are not available in Friendster and the features which they feel like using at that point of time. Therefore, this would make Friendster an even more user-friendly and diverse website, looking after the needs of people from all aspects of society.

In a nutshell, we sincerely feel that the introduction of these features would greatly benefit Friendster and increase its popularity among Internet users. We hope and strongly encourage you to approve and implement our ideas, as it would give Friendster an edge over other websites. Thank you.

Proposal on new features for Friendster

With the increasing use of internet by people all over the world, internet sites like friendster are becoming famous all over the world. So, I think friendster is losing its popularity day by day. Blogspots like orkut and others are becoming famous day by day. In this competition, friendster is required to add new featured so that it can become more famous than the other blogspots and used by as many people as possible.

Firstly, friendster should enable users to access as many themes as possible. Users should be provided with as many creative themes. Themes like fire burningin the background, moving cartoon characters or falling hearts. So that users can make their profiles in a more creative way. This will attract more and more users towards friendster as it makes our profile look more attractive.

Secondly, providing users with instant chat facility will be really useful. By providing the facility of chat facility with online and offline information without and downloads is a feature that no other blogspots have in their facilities. This will really be helpful. Whenever a friend is online they can chat easily without any problem without missing any appointments. This facility will increase the number of users tremendously.

Finally, special features for people with people who have more friends should be provided. The users with more friends should be provided with new themes or online games. This will also enforce the users on making more and more friends. More of the blogspots lack this facility. This will also attract more users.


By implementing these features, I am sure that friendster will definitely gain popularity and will also help friendster to be the best among all the blogspots.

Thank you

Proposal on new features for Friendster

At present, there are many social-networking websites. The competition is really strong and if Friendster does not seek to improve on its features, it will soon be forsaken. To preserve its current users and attract new users, we propose that Friendster needs to add new peatures to its website and also improve on present problems.

The first feature we will like to propose is to add games to the website. Instead of simply allowing users to browse other members' accounts and profiles; adding them as friends and writing testimonials, Friendster should create another outlet whereby members can interact under supervision. Adding games to the website will enable members to have fun together, and get to know each other better. Games like chess or poker or mahjong can allow members to pit their skills against each other. For those who prefer more action, games with more obstacles, mystery and fighting can cater to their likes; and members can form teams and have a showdown.

The next feature we would like to propose to Friendster is instant messaging. The current feature of leaving comments behind although enable the interaction between individual users, it is not effective enough. Comments and message may not be able to impress their to-be-friends as it may not be specific. However if an instant messaging function is added, the individual users would be able to communicate more frequently and also get responses faster. Furthermore, when more chances are given to users to chat online, we believe they would spend more time on Friendster.

Finally, Friendster should enable its language setting to be changed according to the user's preference. Currently, Friendster can only be viewed and used in English. For people who do not use the language, they would be deprived of the chance to have a Friendster account. Some people use English but may be much more comfortable using their native or other language, and thus may be discouraged from using Friendster. By enabling different languages to be implemented, Friendster can become a globalised social networking site. Users of Friendster can get to know people from many other different countries. We strongly believe that if Friendster has other languages, a rise in the number of Friendster users will be seen.

The above are the suggestions of how Friendster can be improved to be more user-friendly. We hope that you can consider our suggestions and give your approval. Thank you.

Proposal on new features for Friendster®

In today’s technologically advanced society, many people patronize social networking sites on the Internet. This has resulted in fierce competition between more popular ones such as MySpace©, Facebook, LiveJournal™ and not forgetting Friendster®. To stay ahead, Friendster has to strive for further improvements and advancements for its site. Thus, we would like to propose to you a few interesting and novel ideas to increase the traffic at your site.

To begin with, we would like to suggest the implementation of a photo-editing feature on Friendster®. Through our observations, many people upload their photographs onto their homepages. Nowadays, people spend most of their time in front of the computer and hence, they would feel more comfortable expressing themselves in IT designing and personalizing their photographs. This enables users to display their creativity, rather than scribbling with mere crayons on a cut-out photograph. We understand that there is a new feature, Adobe® Photoshop, which allows people to edit their photos. This feature, although frequently used by many, is inconvenient for Friendster® users because they cannot edit and upload photos on the same webpage. Therefore, we feel that this feature is both handy and convenient and we appeal to you to include this on the site.

Another idea that we have is to enable members to send out greeting cards. This interactive function enables users to send out animated greeting cards to one another. This would be a fun, and not to mention, all-purpose and appealing way for people to keep in touch with one another. Such cards are creative means of communication which would be widely received by the masses, especially the young. We suggest a wide variety of cards that have animation to entice people of all ages. People can thus offer their well wishes or even condolences. Other than this, people can also get their hands on and design or personalize their cards. As an additional bonus, these cards should be catered free of charge. It will definitely increase user satisfaction and subsequently the number of hits at Friendster®.

Lastly, we propose a common space for users to efficiently share files on Friendster®. This file-sharing feature would provide them with an avenue for them to interact with one another, and also discover people with similar interests. New friendships can be forged in this way as well. Users may also choose to display their information on their profile pages and make them visible to more users. The files shared could include beauty tips or cooking recipes. Through this, users would be able to connect with and understand their fellow Friendster® users, strengthening bonds and establishing friendships across the globe.

In conclusion, we feel that with these new features added to Friendster®, it would definitely become more user-friendly, innovative, and popular among the masses. Many advantages can be gained from these additions, and thus, we strongly encourage you and your team to include these features in Friendster®. Thank you.
