I might be late in posting this,
but today I got mail from zurker that it has been Live in India.
So, I made account just to check this new social networking website.
Do you think, it can beat facebook ?

I don't know how this crap works though.
There is something called "zurks" copied from tweeter known as "tweets". Sadly, profile picture doesn't supports .png file .. weird 😨

Here's some screenshots.

Try #-Link-Snipped-# & teach me how to use social networking websites 😉

by the way zurker is developed by Winklevosses brothers ??

The UI looks lame. What new features are they brining in for giving a fight to the biggies in town?

If not, what's the big deal about the site? I've totally given up on sarcasm.

Back then, I got news that Winklevoss's twins were creating social networking website which will uproot facebook (I doubted latter part though). So I tried registering it & wanna have taste of it, but as it was in test mode, so while registering, it said they will notify me when it will go live.
Today, I got mail ...& so I trolled it for a while ... I thought it would be nice if I share with CE community, so posted it here.

Just wondering, did i offended anyone anyhow by posting ? 😨

Don't get me wrong. There's nothing wrong in posting. If Winklevoss' were to launch a website; they'd do a much better job; because they've got millions in their pockets. Plus, I don't think that's actually their creation. It makes no sense to launch a Facebook rival. Social Networking, I think is already overdone. From the screenshot, the work is definitely not of an experienced UI designer. The website looks so 2001ish to me.

That said, there is no harm in trying out another social network. Facebook succeeded because they were 'exclusive' and got the University folks hooked on earlier. It was the early adopter community that made Facebook work and steal away all the visitors from Hi5 and Orkut.

I think the website needs a LOT more work for it to attract the attention of the 'early adopters'. But that's just my opinion, I could be totally wrong.

I totally agree with you.
I bet a graduate Engineer can develop better looking website than this zurker.

Anyways, I am not into this social networking crap .. so Zurker, Facebook or orkut .. all sounds same to me ^_^
