No, it has nothing to do with getting back together with your ex, or anything to do with beans, for that matter. Then again, maybe their motto ‘Finds is in the word Friends’ says it all Refriends.
com is actually the new reincarnation of the defunct social networking site of the same name. Now Refriends is a social news network in the vein of Digg, but with the aim of succeeding where Digg hasn’t done so well. Refriends gives you the chance to share what interests you with the people in your life. It also gives them a chance to approve or disapprove any story they read. Stories at Refriends.com fall under four wide-ranging topics: World News, Entertainment, Science and Technology. A vote for the next Refriends.com top topic is currently taking place. Top contributors are listed each week alongside their story approval rating.
Refriends.com In Their Own Words
“Just as if the word ‘find’ embedded the word ‘friends’ is a clue for wisdom of crowds, the answer to finding quality stories may just be a socially powered community.”
Why Refriends.com It Might Be A Killer
Refriends could succeed especially if unsatisfied Digg or reddit users find it. The stories are wide-ranging, interesting, even informative. It’s betting on being the friendlier alternative to Digg and it just may work.
Some Questions About Refriends.com
Can it actually outdo the behemouth that is Digg? It already had to be reformatted once, will this version be the one to attract users, or is the social news network also a tad oversaturated right now?
