Social Network Needed Quickly 26.06.08
I need a social network QUICKLY developed that will have components of both myspace and facebook as well as a few new things (which are detailed below) such as video chat. I do need an active working version of this website as soon as possible. The basic acceptable initial version of this website will include the following sections (similar to myspace) browse/search, invite, mail, blogs, favorites, forum, groups, events, classifieds, status updates, and “tag” capabilities.
THE SITE MUST BE SELF CONTAINED AND FULLY FUNCTIONAL BASED ON IT’S OWN SCRIPTS WITH NO FEES FOR OTHER SERVICES. The site must allow each member the option to invite their friends to join by importing emails from hotmail, gmail, yahoo, aol, and other email services in a fashion similar to facebook.com .The member should also receive points for inviting friends (and I will tell you what those points should be used for later). The site will allow people to network and connect with others based on mutual interests (such as fishing, etc.) and previous affiliation (such as hometown, schools attended, etc.). Commercialized social network software that is dependant upon any other source is unacceptable for the completion of this project.
The site should also have the ability to host google adsense ads and sponsored ads on every page of the site including members home pages and I should have easy administrative backdoor access to all functions.
The bids I have received for this project have ranged between $300 and $475 and I have been quoted a time frame of 5 days by many developers.
The completed version of the site will contain the following:
1. group chat/video chat
2. ratings/ranking system that allows members to leave other members 1-5 stars and to leave them written feedback
3. area where members can upload audio
4. browse/search feature
5. apps( a place where members can upload applications and free software , with safety mechanisms to prevent viruses)
6. invite- members can invite friends
7. mail
8. blogs
9. favorites
10. forum
11. groups
12. events
13.classifieds
14. status updates
15. an area to upload video
