LovdbyLess: deserves lots of friends
March 19, 2008
We can all think of a few niche travel brands with loyal followings which could usefully experiment with their own social network. But, could they justify the cost of setting up their social test tube?
Enter LovdbyLess a new open source social network which, though not quite plug-and-play, makes the idea of setting up a network a whole lot easier.
Customers, colleagues or maybe just like-minded travellers can create accounts, set up profiles, catch up with friends, receive email updates, add comments and integrate photos and videos - yes, of your cruise, safari, 18-30 pub crawl - via Flickr and YouTube.
At the moment somebody with a large brain needs to be conversant with Ruby on Rails to get it up and running. However I am pretty sure it will soon be available as a one-click install through hosting providers.

Got something to say?
There’s also Folkstr, developed by your countrymen, which does a similar thing:

Thanks Garri. I had forgotten about Folkstr, though it’s a while since I stumbled on it.
But I think he may have bought it from the original developers..
I am not sure if Hans Kristian Løvdal sounds as if he is one of my countrymen
