Social Bookmarking Goes Niche As Joose.us Health & Fitness Community Launches

PR Log (Press Release) – Sep 29, 2008 – 'Joose.us Health & Fitness Community' is the latest in a long line of new social media bookmarking startups.

The relatively new online phenomenon, known as 'social bookmarking' has changed the way we use the internet. Websites such as digg.com, del.icio.us and stumbleupon.com afford members the ability to save, rate and share their favorite bookmarks.  

However, http://Joose.us takes social technology a step further by specializing in a specific area, enabling members a more user-friendly environment to search for information on health and fitness related subject matter.

Joose's creator Steph White, (otherwise know as 'Joosey'), told us 'I actively participate in many Social Networking and Bookmarking Sites and have done for about eighteen months now, but I was always bothered by the enormous amount of information that just wasn't relevant to what I was looking for.  Health and Fitness is a huge area to cover on it's own; there's medical conditions, diet, obesity and weight loss, bodybuilding, training, exercise and even the health and fitness of our pets.'

'The aim of Joose.us is to bring together like-minded people who want to learn from each other and share their knowledge too'.  A global community working towards common goals, whether that be learning, teaching, increasing awareness or driving traffic to quality content on the internet'.

Joose.us further sets itself apart by offering a toolbar, which installs quickly and easily in Firefox, Flock or Internet Explorer browsers, giving users access to a variety of health related online tools, for example a BMI Calculator, Calorie Counter and nutritional information.  Free eBooks are available to download (readers are permitted to sell and keep 100% of the profits) and there's even a chat facility to connect with other so called 'Joosers'.

Steph went on to say 'getting http://Joose.us off the ground has been a huge undertaking, but I'm pleased with the results so far.  There's every possibility I'll be breaking into new niches with further bookmarking websites, I'm always open to new ideas'.
