web 2.0 program that can get you friends
Tuesday, May 30th, 2006It’s called Fo.rtuito.us. It’s just a soft launch, but I thought this was neat when I saw it on Techcrunch.
Here’s a quote:
“When you register at Fo.rtuito.us it randomly introduces you to another member. You have four days to interact with that member via anonymous email to see if you can become friends. If after those four days both people decide they would like to stay friends, they are added to your permanent friends list. You are then introduced to another person.”
Who knows if it will have the same traction as MySpace or Bebo, (which is growing as fast as MySpace) but as Michael points out, if it was offered as a feature on those existing social networking powerhouses, it will definitely get traffic.
