CribSocial.com - Socialize & Make New Friends

Some claim that social interactions through resources like Facebook and MySpace have one clear drawback, namely that people are becoming increasingly isolated in their houses and missing the “real” meaning of social interexchange. That is debatable ad infinitum, of course.

But the fact remains the ones who do agree with that will maximize this website. It has the explicit mission to encourage people to socialize offscreen by meeting each other in the real world and doing things together.



CribSocial is not only free to join, but it is also very straightforward. All you have to do is create an account and then look for a partner for any type of activity you are interested in. That can go from jogging, attending yoga classes, going to a gig, and generally hanging about. The site actually is subdivided in categories such as “Dance”, “Night life”, “Sports”, “Hobbies” and “Health & Fitness”.

A definitive asset of the service is that it also allows you to create and organize social groups to meet regularly. Furthermore, it is possible to publish one time events such as a concert or the launch event for a book and then invite people to attend.
