Gathered Anything Lately?
May 24th, 2006
The cleverly named Gather.com is yet another social network that’s been garnering more attention lately. I’ve been contributing to it off and on for a few months, and have to say it’s worth checking out.
[Gather was] recently named by BusinessWeek as one of the Top Desktop Diversions of 2006. Gather is a place where people share their views on a wide variety of topics – everything from food and family to politics and poetry. You can participate on Gather at any level you wish: read thoughtful content, comment on someone’s work, write an article, or upload some photos. You might join a few Gather Groups, member-created and managed discussion forums on every topic and hobby imaginable.
Gather is currently in the midst of what one might call a membership drive. So, if you join by following my link, we both get “Gather Points” for participating. (Gather Points are reedemable for cash or goods.)
I figure if you’re a fan of this blog, you’ll be a fan of Gather.
