I also want to see how Vincent Tan can turn it around to their benefits. Maybe the direct sales business going global will be of use and facilitate the growth. Both companies are still in red.

The only chance Friendster has is its focus on having the "local touch" via partnerships in go-to-market activities that reaches out to new users and Facebook users to also use Friendster. The thing about being part of a network and the tons of clubs, games on Facebook that is so easy to use/access is a high barrier. All popular culture has taken to Facebook and Twitter as the two defining social media standards - just witness last Friday to Sunday's Star, New Sunday Times. Nary a mention of Friendster but all on Facebook and Twitter.
