Friendsorenemies.com is a site that's like an alternative Myspace for the Myspace generation (read: young, somewhat computer savvy, mostly white, suburban kids) and since I'm such a media whore, I decided to sign up.
The site, though still in a beta stage, is still a little easier on the eyes. So far I haven't encountered a bunch of shameless half-naked bimbos, older sex-craved businessmen, people who frequent nightclubs and drink Incredible Hulks, or annoying layouts created with half-assed HTML skills
The major aesthetic difference of FOE is that you can also add "enemies" to your profile, going along with that old mafia mantra: "keep your friends close and your enemies closer."
At this point, it's probably a little too soon to determine whether it'll by a hit like Myspace or fail like Friendster. Although with all the free advertising that FOE honcho and occasional musician, Pete Wentz, has been giving, I wouldn't be surprised if we were talking about how all the cool kids are on Friendsorenemies and only dorks use Myspace.
