The Family community paul mama , about which we in the past few weeks b had opened during has now gone online. By Robert Basic basicthinking.de / blog has made ​​the effort to offer the test. Here is a brief excerpt of his analysis:

The mandatory fields in the profiles are very extensive and could therefore discourage some users from the community to make it active. Furthermore, profiles can be compared to the outside while blocking other users, but this feature is by default set to on, so that privacy must be made manually.

Furthermore, can create their own themes, and probably no design or select. This eliminates a great deal of customization away, especially in communities that are often a recipe for success. In addition, the integrated community features such as blog and photo gallery standard elements which are lacking the unusual or special features. A major shortage of a suitable means, explains the important points in the community as well.

The photo function is also still very rudimentary: there is no Uploader to upload multiple files in one go or ne zip function. Nor can you comment on the pictures, not inline. It also displays only three pics per page, too little, probably because someone glances at page impressions.

Partly for these reasons, Robert comes to the following assessment:

"... An overall formulaic Social Network, which has been improved in many corners and must be further developed. As for pure functions. Perhaps not so important [...] As I said, if it is possible that you can activate the network effects, the platform itself can be so average. But then why so negative? Why negative? I'm just honest about how I look at this new website. She stands out from other social networks by anything the B-class and they must also, as others are just the start. "

It also lacks paulsmama.de apparently the functions that the community would be properly characterized as a family community. In addition to the family tree, there is probably no features that could support the self-given label "family community". And about other parent communities we have here , here and here reported.
