My Modern Metropolis

The world of wide web is evolving into the world of social web. The latest addition to the WSJ portfolio is a social networking site for WSJ users. But this blog won’t be about WSJ or any major social networking site. This one is about a small social networking site that I recently joined. It goes by the name My Modern Metropolis aka theMET.

theMET networking land was created by Alice Yoo on May 27th, 2008. theMET is your key to the modern day experiences focused on five main areas: events, dining, travel, entertainment, and modern art. In addition, theMet’s daily insiders’ updates give you plenty of insightful information about what’s going in the world of advertising, blogging, fashion, music, politics, technology, and travel. Alice, the president of this modern metropolis, not only keeps the site up and running but creates a very cool and chilling atmosphere by actively socializing with friends on theMET.

What makes theMET unique is the exchange of modern day experiences between friends that happens almost in real time. Hardly any post on the forum remains unanswered. Once you join theMET, your new friends-to-be stop by to welcome you to the network. You don’t have to personally know anyone there to feel like you belong. The beauty of this network is its vivid social interaction that allows you to virtually meet and become friends with cool new people. People who know what’s really up. You will get addicted to the site before you know it.

Another great bonus that comes with theMET is its handy guide to California’s travel and lifestyle. Whether you plan on visiting or live in California checking out the latest hot spots on theMet will upgrade your trip or your life from pretty average to really cool. Majority of theMET’s recommended destinations come from personal experience. I feel like going on vacation just by reading about the featured destinations and spots. Take a look at theMET and judge it for yourself. It’s definitely a very cool place to hang out online.
