WereYouThere.com - Social Memories and Nostalgia

WereYouThere is a new social network which brings together people who’ve shared the experience of attending a major social event or took part in a significant occurrence or were simply alive during a particular moment. The basic premise is that you’re not alone. It’s about shared social memories. While it may sound slightly vague and obvious, it does have a significant effect. It makes people nostalgic and nostalgic people like to reminisce which makes for great social networking. Carrying on that idea, WereYouThere gives its users personal spaces to hark back to the days when there were no telephones, or to when they got their first car, had their first ice cream soda date, heard the Beatles for the first time, etc—common social memes basically. In order to liven up those memories, users can add photos, videos, and audio. Users can add posts to their favorites, send them to friends, or add them to their alerts. Anyone can join—grandfathers, uncles, teenagers—the site is perfect for getting lost in memories.

 
  In their own words  

“Your memories are too important to leave in the attic. Why not share them with others? Relive your favorite concert or World Series. Beatlemania. The year King and Kennedy were shot. Remember the cars you drove, the songs that moved you and the events that changed you. Post stories, photos and videos of the moments that mattered.
Share your memories. Meet others who remember. Everyone has a story to tell.”

  Why it might be a killer  

The beauty of this site is its reach and flexibility. The old and the young alike will be drawn to it. It’s a fascinating look at different social epochs, history, customs and social memory and it’s easy to be mesmerized by all the stories. What’s more WereYouThere isn’t cluttered or overwhelming—the design is clean and utterly navigable.

  Some questions  

Will younger people find that this is merely an outpost for the reminiscing of their grandparents? How easy is it for members to connect? Is there a way to add events or meetings?
