Buying friends online

Do you want more friends for your MySpace presence? The Globe and Mail has an article by Keith McArthur, Trouble making friends online? Buy them (May 22, 2007) about services known as “friend trains” that help people make lots of friends. These services are selling enhanced access so that people can get lots of friends faster. Companies that use Facebook for viral marketing can then get lots of friends who then get their feed.

Obviously you may not be able to buy love, but you can by friends.
