I don't use social networking sites. I don't like them. I'd rather use forums. Tommy is there any update yet on FC? And Martin are you planning on a shoutbox or a chat room here? I presume it would all be members only?
Didn't want to post it as I don't want to spam on Martin's sites, but it'll be live in 2 weeks hence my increased internet presence as of late. Going to the pub less and spending more time online to re-motivate myself to spend time on forums and chats haha.
Sorry it's taken so long, but I've been busy with my 'real life' job and not only that, I'd rather have taken my time and do it properly and launch at full function, rather than rush it and launch with half the site 'under construction'. It's a big project, I'm even paying a co-developer from rentacoder to help with a lot of the features as they're just beyond my own capability, but he only wanted £200up front, and a further £300 when the site is live and I'm satisfied.
But yes, FC is returning. The launch date was June-July, but thanks to taking on an extra developer to delegate to and do the more difficult tasks his estimate is anywhere between the 21st and 29th of this month.
It'll be a hybrid of a social network, and a traditional chat site, it sounds like it might be difficult to balance, but the way its set out & laid out is actually quite simple. The site has been designed ground-up for user friendliness, ease of use and simplicity.
If you go to the URL in my profile, Jane, there's a page there to the Facebook group where I've started updating on development, there are screenshots. Alternatively PM me and I'll give you the demo username & password to have a gander.
