I wonder what the mindset is of someone who duplicates--exactly--not only the functionality, but everything down to the layout and color scheme.
It doesn't seem that this kind of venture is going to penetrate very far, especially outside of Russia. Then again, the recent article posted about Friendster mentions they are focusing on smaller Asian countries (Malaysia, etc). I guess this is the web equivalent of a niche company: trading potential success for potential market safety.
- andre 19y agoI don't think they are looking to penetrate other countries that don't speak Russian. Although USA and other non-eastern-european countries are available to register under, you still need a Russian connection somewhere for it to be useful. I also have issues with handing over too much of my info to a Russian company, as their track records aren't that clean.
