NERD
Got some free time after preping the stuff i need for the interview tomorrow, so i start browsing people’s profile on friendster. Problem…about a month before they introduce the chat feature, things start to go funny with the search. Profiles which doesn’t fit the limitation I set start popping out. So today I fiddled with the setting to see where it went wrong. First I though it was matching the word "Richmond" to where I live, and cause the BC profiles to show, but later, I found out there are more than just Richmond, BC profiles. There were profiles from all over the world, The most noticable repeatition are profile from manila and BC. After 15 mins of fine tuning the search params, I gave up. There has to be something wrong with the friendster db, either that or they just dont’ have a geographical db to support the location search. I know for sure neither BC or Manila are 5 miles from Ontario…..sigh….for spending time trying to diagnose the problem, I give myself 10 nerdy nerd points. ~_~ …there goes 15 mins of my life that I won’t get back.
