I just revisited my friendster as it has been a while since I last logged in. I have been using facebook a lot recently. I tried accessing my friendster blog and noticed that you can change the “theme”. I tried the feature and noticed that changing the theme of the friendster blog was similar to that of changing a wordpress blog theme. Well, I continued and activated the theme and noticed the “Meta” section where you can access the “Site Admin” link which is what a default wordpress blog would have and it’s confirmed. Friendster is using wordpress for their blog. You can see the /wp-admin from the URL. Well, pardon my ignorance because I did not notice this before lolz.
Yep.. they’re using Wordpress.. In fact, they also have the “XML-RPC” access for the blogs… =))
@Ronald: Cool! Friendster should have been one of your references for your research paper because they are one of the many examples for the technology you have chosen.
