More news on social networking

Wednesday, November 08, 2006

A new social networking site has just come to my attention. You'll either love it or hate it: it's a social networking site for cats. And I'm not talking the hip and cool variety. No, if you've got 4 legs and fluffy hair and an ability to purr, then Catster.com is for you!

Meet Karma Kitty! Karma Kitty is very young, she's black (or should I say African American?), likes playing with balls and on the affectionate scale, she rates a high 10!
Interested? I'll bet you are!

So what can you do on this site? You can browse the profiles, read the day in the life stories and if you would want to make friends with Karma Kitty or indeed donate a fish treat, you just need to become a member, and then click on a cute icon to donate or reach out to make friends.

Strictly in the interests of research, we logged on. There are some very strong warnings about how you MUST actually have a cat, no pretenders here please, and how you MUST NOT load up any pictures of people, it's an all-cat show. Presumably this is to stop the lady cat owner brigade from posing with their cute pussys? Our entry, Harry the Shitty Kitty was up just a few minutes before a concerned member flagged the page as being rude and offensive. There's a team of legal experts battling it out in Ohio (or some other middle American state) right now about whether Harry, 8 months, from Kildare, will be allowed to stay on the site. Keep an eye on how Harry's doing, click here.

And if you'd like to join the campaign to set Harry free, please add your comment below. Free the Kildare 1. Support freedom of speech for all kittys - no matter how shitty!!

MR, you're going to get some very strange visitors to your site when the keywords in this blog entry get taken out of context! "likes playing with balls" "rude and offensive" "posing with their cute pussys"...
