for me it is better than any other because i am comfortable with it and it has many members so i have many friends.
I can't really say..
Because I didn't joined alot of online communities.
I joined only a few --[b]Friendzy[/b], [b]FaceParty[/b] and [b]Hi5[/b].
I liked [i]Friendzy[/i], but I think it's closed now. I liked their [i]FriendZine[/i] section.
Friendster is pretty good so far..
