What Parents Need to Know
About Friendster
Parents need to know that this site isn't for kids and that members have to be 16 and up. There's a nod to privacy in that users can choose to have their last names hidden and allow only friends to view their profiles and blogs. Unfortunately, the site's settings don't default to the strongest, most private settings when a new member joins. Users have to find the right place to change their privacy settings to make themselves safer. Also, several site features require different memberships in other sites, adding additional layers to privacy and safety concerns.
