groupstick.com summary
I’ve launched a sorta social site “groupstick.com” few weeks ago. Since then I’ve got some users signed up, but they are all from my work place. I should add a section for instruction since people told me that they did not know what to do with basically. That was a good point indeed.
I know what it is for since I created it. If I summarize what the site is for, here it is:
main features
- Message board based on topic and topic becomes a group.
- Email notification when user posts a message (default), so works like email list as well
- Twitter like UI
- User can view their group posts at home page
- Private and Public group
security
- Entire site on secure channel (SSL)
- Strong salt technique for user’s password
- Daily Data backup
- Data Recovery
- Validation of users
public group feature
- Anyone can see the messages
- Anyone can create a group
- Anyone can join a group if signed up
- Messages and title are searchable
- Can share via facebook, digg, and so on
- unlimited number of groups per user
private group feature
- Invitation only and invitee has to accept the invitation to join the group
- Search does not index private groups
- No one can know existence of private groups except group members
- No one can view messages in private groups except group members
I have to admit that the site needs more features. However, I think groupstick.com is ready for more users and users can take full advantages of it.
