soapcentral.com and MindSay partner to launch online community for soap opera fans.
Mountain View, CA (PRWEB) April 17, 2007 -- soapcentral.com, the #1 ranked soap opera website, today announced that it has selected MindSay to power the Web's first social network for fans of daytime drama series. The partnership will enable soapcentral.com's 1 million-plus monthly visitors to maintain blogs, create profiles, share photos and video and more.
"Since launching in 1995, community has been a key to our growth," said Dan J Kroll, founder of soapcentral.com. "By adding MindSay's assortment of user generated content and social networking features to our site, we're enabling our members to connect in ways that they've never been able to before. The blogs will provide an even greater sense of community and provide an unprecedented level of interactivity between soap opera fans around the world."
Among the new features, which can be found at blogs.soapcentral.com, users can quickly create a profile, find other members who follow the same shows and characters, and maintain personalized blogs (with their own unique user.soapcentral.com address) to share their opinions.
"The soapcentral.com community is an excellent example of how our solution can be tailored to fit a specific audience," said Adam Ostrow, VP Business Development at MindSay. "Further, as a hosted offering, we were able to bring the project from concept to market in less than a month," he added.
Launched in 2003, MindSay now offers its platform to high traffic web sites looking for a quick and affordable way to launch a customized social network.
"Unlike many other providers of so-called 'out-of-the-box' solutions, the MindSay platform is based on a proven product, needs zero development expertise from the client and requires no new hardware or infrastructure," said Brian Klug, VP Technology at MindSay.
Kroll added, "Launching our community with MindSay was beyond easy. After all of the customizations were completed, I simply modified a few settings and we were ready to launch."
