ZLoop.com - Life Together

ZLoop is a new interaction system made up of four parts: First, ZLoop offers everyone the ability to create their own private collaboration space or online community in a click. The complete ease of loop creation means they can be used like folders for interaction.

ZLoop was built so that you could have hundreds or even thousands of loops over the years, some that are ongoing and active, and others that are long since inactive but now serve to retain and organize those past interactions. Second, ZLoop relationships present a whole new metaphor for one-to-one interaction. Relationships provide a single, private place to keep up to date on colleagues, friends, and acquaintances contact and personal information; while also providing the ability to interact in a variety of ways and let you share and interact around multiple content types. All interaction is captured and organized over time, providing a collective journal of the life of each relationship. Third, it would be impossible to interact within and between hundreds of different loops and thousands of relationships if you had to navigate to each one independently. Your ZLoop ‘Home’ and the site header provides an inbox that notifies you of activity happening within all of your loops and relationships, lets you instantly respond to and interact around those activities, and provides you with controls to filter the flow of information to you from each loop. Fourth, the personal information you share about yourself differs according to whether you are at work, with your family, or at the club you go to. ZLoop has replicated this online by providing users with the ability to create multiple identities which they can submit as is appropriate to the context of each loop. Furthermore, because interaction on ZLoop is specific to each loop instead of existing within a single monolithic network (like myspace, facebook, or linked in), interaction remains in its appropriate context and is never exposed to those it is not relevant to (or to people you don’t even know).
