Create your own social network with iScripts Socialware

by Tricia

iscriptsbox1.jpg I’m sure that everyone reading this has heard of social network sites such as Facebook and Myspace. If you haven’t heard of these sites you’re either brand spanking new to the internet or you haven’t been paying attention because these sites are wildly popular.

Wouldn’t it have been cool if you’d been the one to come up with the idea for Myspace or Facebook?

While you can’t recreate what’s already been created, you certainly can create your own social network site using iScripts SocialWare social network script. Think of the possibilities!

The iScripts Socialware software is a program that’s been developed in PHP/mySQL and it’s totally customizable. You can use it to create a stand alone social network, or perhaps create a social network that goes along with your existing personal or business website.

If you like the idea, but you realize that you don’t know that much about PHP or mySQL don’t worry. When you purchase the iScripts software you may request that the iScripts team set up and install the script for you on your web server. The company will upload all of the program files and images necessary to run your new social network, set up and configure the script and they’ll even test the installation to make sure that everything works as it should.

How’s that for service?

Naturally this installation service is not free, however it’s offered at the low price of $49.99 which I believe is a reasonable price for the peace of mind it will afford you when you see that your new social network is up and running and ready to accept new members within approximately 24 hours of your purchase.

iScripts even offers a full customization service that clients may chose inquire about if they want a truly unique social network.

You can also try a Demo of iScripts Socialware via the website. Just click on the Demo button at the top of the Socialware page and you can sign in to a demo version of the user or admin section and get a feel for the product.

If I were considering purchasing this product I would definitely take it for a test drive, as well as visit some of the sample sites that are listed in the right sidebar of the web page, and I’d also view screen shots of the user and admin panels which can be reached by clicking on the Screen shots button at the top of the page.

So how much does this cost? Only $149.95. I think this is a reasonable price for a product that could give your existing website quite a boost, as well as creating the potential to be the next Myspace or Facebook. You’ll get free support for one year, but you can purchase one to three years worth of additional support if you’d like.

If I were considering creating a social network site this would be a program that I’d look in to purchasing. I did a quick web search to see what other ready made social network programs were out there and I didn’t have much luck finding full featured stand alone social network software of this quality. Therefore I’ve come to the conclusion that this is a fairly unique social network product well worth considering if you are interested in setting up a social networking website.

Youtube takes best person of the year award at the Webbys

by Tricia

YouTube and many of the top members of YouTube are among this years Webbys Award winners.

Watch the video to see Steve Chen and Chad Hurley, creators and founders of Youtube accept the Webby person of the year award. You’ll also see David Bowie accepting the life time achievement award, and actress Jessica Lee Rose accepting the best actress Webby for actress of the year.

The webbys are of course an annual event and all blogs and websites on the internet can be nominated for a Webby in any of the many categories available. Perhaps one day someone I know will actually win a Webby.

Getting organized and cross promoting sites

by Tricia

I’m not being very wise lately.

I made a post on The Web Files early this morning about how I’ve been having trouble keeping up with all my blogs lately – partly because I have so many, and partly because I have so much work that I can do the prep work (writing draft articles for each site) that I used to do in the past.

One of the dumb things I’ve been doing is not always writing about tech stuff on my two tech related blogs. Duh.

I just wrote an article on my most general blog about using business cards to promote your website and or blog in social situations. Naturally that article would have been perfect for this site or the Web Files. Right?

If you’ve ever thought of making up business cards that have your website address on them go and read what I just posted on My World. You might get some ideas as to how to use the cards effectively.

At the very least, by writing an article on another site and telling you about it here I’ve just practiced another technique that anyone who has multiple websites should try.

I wouldn’t do this all the time, but if you’ve written an article on another one of your sites that readers from another site might want to read, by all means post about it. You’ll be linking to one of your articles and giving the originating site another link and with any luck you’ll send new visitors to the originating site as well.

This is a fairly basic cross promotion technique, but I don’t see it used all that often on many of the sites I visit regularly. Give it a try.
