Oh, wow. Wonder what Mark Zuckerberg would have to say to this! There’s a new social networking Site called Netropolitan which only accepts members if they are willing to shell out US $9000 as registration fees followed by $3000 a year for membership.
This new social networking Site is clearly for the rich. And it spares no change saying so, starting from its motto – The Online country club for people with more money than time.
The Netropolitan Club is postioned as a global Online community for affluent & “accomplished individuals worldwide to socialize in a completely private and secure manner.”
The new social networking Site is:
Global: Members can meet like-minded individuals from across the world who share your lifestyle & interests
Private & Secure: The entire service is inaccessible from the public Internet, including search engines. All member transmissions to and from Netropolitan are encrypted. (Which means even Google cannot index it.)
Ad-Free: Absolutely no 3rd-party or display advertising is sold or shown, & the service pushes no paid promotions to its members. (However, businesses are allowed to create groups & members to advertise to each other, under strict guidelines)
Moderated: The Netropolitan community is continually monitored by the company’s own professional moderators, ensuring readily-available help & a “pleasant & courteous” experience for all
In short, as they have mentioned on the Website – you can treat The Netropolitan Club as your on but Online private club for any purpose – personal, business, professional.
This new social networking Site is the brainchild of American music composer Jamesh Touchi-Peters.
So what is it that you can do for your $3000 a year fee? Once you are a Netropolitan member, you have access to status updates & discussion rooms with all other members. You can create groups, have conversations about everything from fine wines to classic cars to vacation destination recommendations. There will also be moderators constantly monitoring the club.
You can follow other members, check out their profiles & take part in discussion forums.
Duh? But isn’t all that available in other social networking Sites such as Facebook?
With the exception of the login screen, the entire Netropolitan social club is inaccessible to the public. To reiterate, Netropolitan isn’t indexed by search engines, & all transmissions to & from the service to your browser or app are automatically encrypted.
As a sign off, the developer of this new social networking Site has added: Please understand that Netropolitan is NOT a concierge service. Our Member Service Associates will not book you a charter jet, or find you tickets to a sold-out Broadway show. They exist solely to help members technically navigate and find their way around the social club.
