- Buddytree is currently in the process of being revised and will be released for beta testing very soon. 'Like' our Facebook page so you will be notified when it is available for you to start using.
- Buddytree is a system currently being developed to cultivate meaningful face-to-face friendships through the use of a new type of social networking website. Buddytree is designed to make it easier to schedule events with your existing friends as well as to help build your face-to-face friend network through friend sharing. Unlike other social networking websites, Buddytree will focus on quality, not quantity when it comes to making new friends and as such, the site will incorporate a collection of best practices from various sources.
- The system is being created in response to problems of social isolation and depression which has reached epidemic levels in many cities around the world.
- Although this new system was inspired by Meetup and Facebook it is not designed to compete with either of these sites. In fact, we will continue to help promote the Meetup system as much as we can.
- The Buddytree project is being headed by Glen Brauer and created in association with The Meaningful Discussions Project and Calopia.
- Buddytree will be free to use and will be funded by advertisers similar to other social networking websites.
