Is Friendster an online dating site, or just a "social networking" site?

It's probably the former, because more people want to find dates online than find friends online.

A co-worker in his twenties showed us pictures of some interesting looking girls he met from Friendster.

Friendster is free right now, but it won't stay that way for long, because Friendster is supposedly worth millions of dollars, and it's not worth that much money unless they charge for the service.
