Wayzon.com: Building Social Networking's Missing Link

The Wayzon Project is a new venture designed to provide Internet users with a simplified way to find and interact with others that share their same interests. This innovative enterprise is formally announcing the launch of their Web site, Wayzon.com.

Many people are connected via popular social networking sites, but they have no idea what their connections are interested in. They may be connected to a subject-matter expert or fan of the same sports team and never know it.

The dizzying numbers of social networking sites being introduced have little distinction between them

We wanted to help people make sense of this very crowded space by providing a tool that enables them to bypass social connections and find people who share their interests.

The ultimate goal for Wayzon is to create an 'always-on' environment where someone can identify and interact with subject-matter experts, enthusiasts, or fans of just about any topic - anytime day or night

Atlanta, Ga. (PRWEB) November 5, 2008 -- The Wayzon Project is a new venture designed to provide Internet users with a simplified way to find and interact with others that share their same interests. This innovative enterprise is formally announcing the launch of their Web site, Wayzon.com.

The goal of Wayzon.com is to optimize the way people network and socialize online by connecting users through their interests rather than social connections. Wayzon founder, Paul Holcomb states, "Many people are connected via popular social networking sites, but they have no idea what their connections are interested in. They may be connected to a subject-matter expert or fan of the same sports team and never know it."

The first release of The Wayzon Project is designed to introduce users to Wayzon's more open networking environment. Upon registration, users complete an interest profile and select their top interests and relevant expertise or experience level. Once logged in, users are able to see other users that share their same interests, and can search for other users by interest.

"The dizzying numbers of social networking sites being introduced have little distinction between them," said Holcomb. "We wanted to help people make sense of this very crowded space by providing a tool that enables them to bypass social connections and find people who share their interests." In addition to their interest profile, users can add their personal links to top-tier social sites like LinkedIn and Facebook, but display their specific interests and expertise through Wayzon.

The Wayzon beta introduces an interactive interface called "visual mode" that allows users to see all other users who have a given interest, and see what interests each user has in their profile. The "search mode" adds extended functionality that allows users to identify user's specific expertise or experience. "The ultimate goal for Wayzon is to create an 'always-on' environment where someone can identify and interact with subject-matter experts, enthusiasts, or fans of just about any topic - anytime day or night," said Holcomb.
