Members create and participate in collaborative online communities, known as communities.
Each community is established, configured, and managed by members without requiring any knowledge of programming or any downloading of software. The service is entirely web-based making it conveniently accessible from any computer connected to the Internet. Users can establish private or public communities to connect friends, family, associates, colleagues, customers, suppliers, contractors, employees, students, alumni groups, investors, and any other groups. Extensive customization options exist to address most member requirements. Within communities, users can collaborate by publishing information, engaging in discussions, sharing notes, storing lists, exchanging files, conducting polls, exhibiting images, and more.
