Friend Reunited to Close

Launched in 2000 one of UKs first social networking sites, Friends Reunited is closing. After being sold in 2005 the site went into decline, and despite being taken over again by its originators it could not recover it’s previous usage against the giant Facebook.

Although Friends Reunited is closing, the founder, Steve Parkhurst is opening a completely new service called Liife. Liife is all about capturing key moments in life – both the past and the present. And then sharing them with just the important people who actually took part in those moments, perhaps incorporating some of Friends Reunited features?
