Friendster is encouraging all users to export all their profile data, photos, messages, testimonials, blogs, groups, shoutouts, friends list and comments because all of it will be deleted on May 31, 2011.

According to Friendster‘s Help Page, they will introduce a new and improved Friendster site in the coming weeks. They will upgrade their existing service and will focus into a more entertainment and fun social networking site.

Furthermore, Friendster users can still login using their existing login details after the said update. Friendster will just add new features, preserve login details and delete those features which they think are no longer necessary for the new Friendster Beta version.

Below is the statement of Friendster posted in their Help Page:

“Your Friendster account will not be deleted. You will still have the same email login and password in the new Friendster. Also, your list of friends will be preserved, along with your basic profile information. However, all the photos, messages, comments, testimonials, shoutouts, blogs, forums and groups that you may have now will no longer be part of your account by May 31, 2011.

We understand that your photos, blogs and other private data are important to you. An application is available in the “Apps” section of the site, until May 31, 2011, to help you download or export them securely to third party sites, such as Flickr or Multiply.

If you do not wish to keep all this history or information, then you do not need to do anything. Whether you use the Exporter or not, your Friendster account will not be deleted. Your list of friends will be preserved, along with your basic profile information. Your wallet and games details will also remain unchanged.”
