Want to try Virb.com?

March 6, 2007 at 6:02 pm

For those who haven't heard of it, Virb is a new social networking site (similar to MySpace, but not built around ad space and crappy themes) being developed by Unborn Media — the same people that made PureVolume. I've only had my Virb account for a few days, and even though it's still in beta stages, I can tell you already that it's a lot better than MySpace! I'll try and post a review of their system here in the next few days; maybe even give out some of these beta invites I have!

About the author

I am Jeremy Helms, 28 year old graphic designer, web designer, site architect, programmer, copywriter and ambitious entrepreneur. I was born and live in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. This site is my personal periodical for design, code, business and other topics. When I'm not glued to the computer, I enjoy music, movies, late-night television and sometimes a good night out on the town with friends.

I began professional work in the IT industry 13 years ago in September, 1995. I started my first business in 1998, incorporated my second business in 2001, my third in 2002 and my fourth and most recent in 2006. I am a sponge — I am constantly exploring and learning — about business, design, programming, history, society, and whatever pops up on blogs across the web.
