    MyTrybe.com - Social Networking Through Tastes

    MyTrybe is a social network specializing in interests. It’s designed especially with idea of matching similarly interested minds.

    To achieve this, attention is focused on things—objects and ideas that can be classified as either style, arts and entertainment, humor, news or books. Friendships are facilitated by concurring tastes and values as defined by how members rate items. Each item that a person lists as a like can be rated using a sliding scale, by other members. MyTrybe then learns what you like and connects you with others sharing the same tastes. Thus, users are recommended not just things but also people, effectively building a tight knit tribe conversant in the same topics. MyTrybe has an initial question and answer set for each new member; this helps to narrow in on particular preferences and values. Items can be pulled in from anywhere on the web.

    Some questions about Mytrybe.com

    This approach could take off or it could fail. One caveat for the moment is the lack of members—thus meaning, there aren’t going to be many matches. Does it’s matching filtration system prove true? Does like really equal like?

    Why Mytrybe.com might be a killer

    In the schema of social networks MyTrybe offers something different. It draws people in not by contacts or old schoolmates, but rather by taste. In this way, the tribes are actually, more connected and less random than friends on other networks. MyTrybe does in fact facilitate friendships.
