Hatem’s Diaries

amigolo is a new social network that have been just launched. Fully written in PHP, amigolo is a new generation of social network which introduce the power of social software with Blogs, Groups, Tags, Events, Channels, Wiki, Polls, File sharing, Messenging … etc. And certainly lot of Fun !

What I liked with amigolo is the great features already implemented and the possibility to extend its features. There is for example the possibility to invite your MSN and Gmail friends to build your social network. Social networking is built upon the idea of degrees of relationship to you, so you are the centre of your network and thus you are degree zero. Your friends are one degree away and their friends are two degrees away from you and so on.

Currently amigolo is invite only, and will be kept as closed network during its development and tests, after it the service will be opened for public. I have just invited few friends there, so if you want an invite just drop me a message.

Amigolo is not only a social network, but also a group collaboration plateform and this is the big difference between commons social networks and amigolo. Almost all social networks I know offer just groups with the very basic features post, comment, archive, moderation and events. With amigolo you can find also blogs, wiki, polls, calendar, channels, tags, discussions …etc.

There is really lot of features that I can’t enumerate here, but what I can say is that is really too much fun. Currently available in english only, but there is more translation coming in the future.

Updated : I have officially retired the social network. The next Amigolo is a brand new product that have been under development for many years. Hope that you will enjoy the next generation of mobile social networks.
