Friendster’s Tribute for Philippine’s Pres. Corazon Aquino

Friendster, one of the leading social networking sites in the world wide web, gave a tribute for Philippine’s former president, Pres. Corazon Aquino, who died this month. The death of Philippine’s former president made huge volume of buzzes from Yahoo! homepage, to various blogs around the world. It was a big news indeed.

Friendster has been very close to the Filipino people, because huge number of its users came from the Philippines. And every struggles, crisis, and other occurrences in this country really affects this social networking site.

And as a tribute to the Philippine’s former president, Pres. Corazon “Cory” Aquino, they made portrait images of Cory and posted it on user’s homepage. They also made a fan page for Pres. Cory, which, as of now, has 166,000 fans. 

It is very touching, that a foreign web company made a tribute on our “kababayan” (fellow citizen).

And as a Filipino, I would like to thank Friendster, for being such a nice company for us, and for our “Icon of Democracy”, our beloved President Corazon Aquino.
