Follow on Google News | New Social Networking Website AY.com Launches Today2 letter domain name AY.com launches a social networking website based entirely on anonymity. AY.com claims to help individuals and businesses find the brutally honest truth from friends and clients.
By: Anonymous You So how exactly does AY.com differ from other social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter? The website is similar to Facebook, in that users start their own account, and create a unique profile for themselves. This includes their name, photos, etc. Users can then post text or photographs in their streams for their friends to see. However where it differs from your typical social networking sites, is that the users leaving comments on your profile are 100% anonymous. Eddie Krassenstein explained the reasoning for this, by stating, "In real life situations, your friends are not going to give you honest answers to most of your questions. Instead, they are going to tell you what you want to hear. However, given the chance to be anonymous, we feel that your friends will give you brutally honest answers, leave brutally honest questions and comments on your profile, and give their honest opinions toward any photos you post of yourself. Anonymity has been rather popular lately with the launch of sites such as Formspring.me. We felt that Formspring was just too limited. What's the big deal about allowing people to ask questions anonymously? In order to make creating an account on AY.com simple, you can login with your facebook account, as well as post updates to your twitter or facebook streams everytime you add something to your AY stream. This should make it easy to convince your friends to leave you comments, and ask you questions anonymously. AY.com plans to market their services not only to individuals, but to companies, websites, bloggers, and politicians as well. They hope that the ability to accept anonymous and perhaps brutally honest comments and questions from clients, readers, viewers and employees will benefit all those involved. End
