Find amazing people to work with through your friends – Try Shoutworthy!
Social Media is all about finding great people to connect with, right? Well now there is a new web application where you can find amazing people to work with through your friends! It’s called, Shoutworthy!
(This is only in Beta at this time, but let us know if you want an invite). Shoutworthy works best when you engage and post awesome Shoutworthy comments about what makes your friends so great, that others will find out what they do best. If they are the best Rails programmer, shout it out and let them know! Maybe your friend is the best blogger? Shout it out and let them know!
By you taking some extra time to let people know what your friends do best, and engaging with others, you are helping your friends flourish. And we all know that doing 10 times more for others than yourself will pay off for you in the end as a bonafide selfless community leader! And isn’t that what Social Media is all about? Connecting people and engaging with them? Try it out for yourself!
