Mistpark is a social network without boundaries. Mistpark installations can
all link together into a global social network which is free from central
control. We are also developing connectors to seamlessly communicate with many
other open social networks and providers - GNU-social, Diaspora, Status.net,
and even the larger closed services such as Facebook and Twitter.

Over the coming months, the boundaries between these networks will start to
become indistinguishable as they all become part of your social circle.
Your personal thoughts and conversations belong to you - and are shared with
those you wish to share them with.
Period.
Mistpark is secure and as private as you wish it to be. Privacy settings are
straight-forward and simple, because we know that relationships rarely are
(straight-forward and simple). Whether you're communicating with drinking
buddies or potential employers, you can rest assured that each can only see
the side of you that you wish to present.

A single instance of Mistpark Server supports up to several hundred people
2010-09-22 01:51:21 +02:00
using commodity hosting hardware. Each of these people can connect with any
2010-10-13 14:42:51 +02:00
other supported network anywhere in the world and share photos, links,
status updates, whatever.

But maybe you don't want to be connect to the world. That's OK too. Mistpark
may also be closed off from the global community and used to support
2010-09-27 05:29:35 +02:00
social networking amongst corporate, educational, religious, and other private
2010-09-27 07:38:52 +02:00
communities. This makes it an excellent choice for the social networking needs
of young teenagers. Their network can grow to global scope as their maturity
increases - and can be made available only to their known friends until then.

Every person on Mistpark has unlimited profiles available to them. There is a
"public profile" which can be seen by anybody. Additional profiles may be
2010-10-13 14:42:51 +02:00
tailored to specific groups or individuals.
2010-09-22 01:51:21 +02:00
2010-10-13 14:42:51 +02:00
Groups may be setup for closed conversations. In this way your conversations
with one group of friends is completely isolated from other friends or groups
of friends.

be, help us to make it better.
