A Different Spin on Family Social Networking
Here at TheFamilyForest.com, we've taken a different approach to family networking. Traditionally, family "website" websites use a centralized website to which users can subscribe to. However, this system can cause problems. For example, in most cases, users would have to subscribe to several family websites if they wanted to be in touch with their extended relatives.
Our solution was simple. No centralized website. Instead, allow users to make relationships with other users in over 40 different ways. Based on how you're related, be it cousins, siblings, in laws, or any other relationship type, there are a host of options when submitting content to specify exactly who should see the content.
We expect this system to allow for the building of even more useful and intuitive features.
