There was a time when facebook was meant solely for college kids to meet, network, and enhance their college experience.
Now middle-schoolers, high-schoolers, middle-agers, your grandma, your music teacher, and that guy you made out with at that party one time, your niece, your uncle and your Sunday school teacher... all have facebook!!! What happened?
The search for a strictly collegiate social networking site may be over. Born from social media guru Josh Weinstein, I present CollegeOnly.com… It’s a miracle!
Weinstein is also the creative mind behind RandomDorm, a college based ChatRoulette, and GoodCrush which is a college dating website…Did this guy have trouble meeting girls in college or what??
What separates CollegeOnly from other social networking sites is its tight security, as inferred from the name. It’s truly an upscale, gated social community for college aged people.
The question is… Is this sending the right message? Don’t worry, neither future employers or relatives can see what you post, so feel free to let loose FratBro15.
CollegeOnly claims to instantly connect you to those at your school, allowing you to discover which fraternities throw the best parties, which classes are the coolest, and which upcoming events are the craziest. So if you’re not having fun at ITT Tech, it’s not because your social networking site isn’t getting the job done, it’s because you chose the wrong school.
Currently there are only three schools on the site: Cornell, Princeton, and Yale, but the site hopes to expand. Until then, it’s going to be the most sophisticated social networking known to man. Don’t forget your sweater vest.
Finally, a social network for us college aged adults who like having more cyber-friends than we do real-life friends. Oh wait, that's EVERY social network.
What do you think? Will this replace Facebook? Let us know in the comments!
