Happy Birthday, Nysics Social!
Today is Nysics Social’s first birthday!
Wow, it’s already been a year!
For those of you who don’t know what Nysics Social is, I’ll give you a little history.
We found this really cool platform called Ning on the 24th of September 2008, and decided to build a site(or a social network) on it. Now, at the time, we thought that we would just use it to host our media(Pictures, Videos, etc…), but little did we know that we would build a social network where people communicated and had fun with each other. When people started signing up, we re-designed the site to read “Nysics Social” instead of “Nysics Media”, and added a few more features. We also built some other sites(like “Nysics Community – a place where writers could build on each others ideas, and “Nysics Awards” – where we gave out awards to people who participated in games), but nobody really signed up or participated in them, so we took those sites down and quickly forgot about them(at least we TRIED). But Nysics Social survived, and is still being used by our 18 users(We did have a few spam requests). Over time, we moved all of our websites over to Ning, and updated the UIs(User Interface) to match each other.
Now, we hope to have more people sign up in the next coming years, so be sure to tell your friends about Nysics Social.
Well, that’s all for today. I’ve got to go eat some cake and ice cream. Happy Birthday Nysics Social, hope to still have you next year!
