It's difficult to say just why faceparty became so popular. Some say it was because it had a stronghold monopoly in an unsaturated market. Others say faceparty offered a very fast interface for individuals to connect with each other. Whatever the reason for facepartys initial popularity, despite a huge email database problem which forced it to drop millions of its users and sell out to anarchy towers on a profile by profile basis, it still retains around 200,000 devout users who seem to enjoy the site for what it is. A journal of faceparty passwords talks about the possibilty of a scam behind all this faceparty password business!
To descibe faceparty in few words it's hard not to mention the lower forms of life that seem to peruse it's corridors. Many profiles seem to detail how challenging their life is, how distraught they were when they were beaten down in their life (usually by an unidentified 'Dave' or 'Kev') but how by being true to themselves (despise all men) they have found a way to true happiness (usually argueable given the nature of the preceeding content).
It's not that these people shouldnt be allowed to vocalise their thoughts (though we'd rather they didn'), it's just the average contented individual who occasionally enters a social network of this type, shouldn't necessarily have to bear witness to just how little self respect most of these strange women have for themselves.
That's not to say you wont find some decent people on faceparty - you'll just have to look bloody hard and it may take a while!
Praise the lord then for bongal. In an over saturated lunatic asylum type market place, along comes a social network which draws focus away from lurid tales of gloom and perverse user to user interaction and magnifies a need for a wholesome, useful social network.
Bongal seems to identify one of life's core motivators - to meaningfully interact with other human beings. More specifically to interact with like minded individuals.
Unlike faceparty, bongal's unique selling point is as far and wide as the spectrum of a persons interests. So broad in fact that it's impossible to see how this fast expanding network could ever slow down.
As with faceparty a user has the ability to interrogate the database. However the similarity ends there. As bongal pushes the boundaries to exploit the internets real potential. A user in bongal can now locate other users by their exact interests. This means that of course bongal could be used for dating means, but then as a lifestyle site, why shouldn't it provide that?
For now it seems like the one to watch is bongal, my advice for those looking for a faceparty password is to join bongal. In my experience, seldom does such an innovative website come along and not go the distance. Bongal has already been tipped as a more intuative, interesting website than facebook.
For now this remains speculatory, but it seems improbable that bongal wont reach fever pitch extremely quickly.
