Red Toucan – Social Networking but for You and Your Friends Only

Written by Ruhani Rabin on March 10, 2006.

We’re the social network that’s not about dating, making friends or getting a job. It’s about you and your social circles in your own private club. With private communities, interest groups, photo galleries, public boards and private messaging systems in one integrated space, we make keeping in touch easy.

Stay connected effortlessly – Keep in touch with your social circles easily – without having to email or call. Just log on to see what’s going on with your private community and let them know what’s going on with you. Simple.
Photo sharing made easy – Share your photo galleries with your friends, family or the entire network with slide shows and dynamic image zoom – see the pictures jump out at you.
Your next purchase made simple – We give you access to authentic, personal referrals: product and service reviews from your own private community and the trusted communities across the network. So rant, rave, rate or review, it’s your word-of-mouth platform.
Control your space – You control everything, from who sees your profile, posts and photos to who participates in your community. You even pick the advertising displayed on your pages. It’s your own private club and it’s all in your hands.

Skobee – Make Plans and Hang Out

Written by Ruhani Rabin on March 10, 2006.

If you plan events with friends using email, Skobee is going to make your life a lot easier.

Instead of contacting all of the friends you would like to plan an event with through the normal channels (IM, email, phone, etc.) and trying to keep things organized, Skobee has a dead simple and better way to handle it. Create a new event, put in vague or definite information on location and date/time, and add emails for people you’d like to include. Skobee will then send out emails to each person along with the current event information, and they can register for the site if they are a new user . Here’s where things get interesting: those people can add new participants, and suggest changes to the date or place by leaving a comment with natural language. Skobee will structure the data and update the event information for everyone. And even better: instead of logging into the site and leaving a comment, participants can simple “reply all” to the email, which includes “plans@skobee.com”, and skobee will figure out what event is being discussed, add a comment to the event page automatically, and update accordingly.
