It was a 3rd party UPS failure and not entirefly friendster's fault. Had nothing to do with programming either, just some wiring issues.Yes, they outsourced because Friendster is poor. Philippines is a fat monkey on their back. Traffic from Pinas is practically worthless. Why? Pinoy companies still prefer advertising in newspapers. Meanwhile, Myspace, is expected to earn $580m in 2009 and Facebook $210m even with a sluggish U.S. economy. So ABS CBN's stake in Multiply = Failed. Philippines is also a fat monkey on Multiply's back. ^^ funny ramblings by that Friendless wanker. It was a 3rd party UPS failure and not entirefly friendster’s fault.

Any one who ever had even a single decent ounce of computer education know that these power dependent machines should and must have some decent power backup somewhere. Its not like california is in the middle of the Gobi Desert of Technology for them not to know that. To put forward power failure as a defense for this stupidity of loosing data reflects their absolute pathetic stupidity in handling a crises and shows their deliberate imprudent neglect for those who patronize their website... very disgusting. I fail to see the intellectual decency to reason out power failure as a cause for the damaging inconvenience these idiots had caused. Day by day I am loosing reliance that social sites can really hold their own once they have matured and evolved into a vibrant community such as what Friendster is what it is today. Multiply can go that way. It can also have a determined potential to grow like Friendster. I certainly hope they do not inherit the stupidity of not backing up power and data like any decent geek student of Technology basically knows as the first principle of operating a site like Friendster and Multiply....
