Pheed: A Social network

When one thinks of social networks they think of the big guys; Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn etc. But there are other budding networks with diverse options available to us. Yes Facebook is one of a kind and over a billion people are on it, but there are other channels we can incorporate with it. One of those is called Pheed.

Launched October of 2012 in Beverly Hills. It began by celebrity endorsments and grew to the public. Pheed is a free social media platform for web and mobile devices.
It enables users to share all forms of digital content:


- Text from your mobile device and PC.

 - Photo Sharing, but no storage.

 - Audio clips: you can record live songs or podcasts within the app (or website) and post to your profile.

 - Videos: Record from the app and post.

 - Live Broadcasts: This is the interesting feature. Have a live event that you or your company are hosting? You can broadcast your event on your Pheed profile for free.

Pheeds' features profess live interaction. Everything can be recorded, photographed, written or broadcasted direct from within the application or on the website. News reporters and socialites can report on Pheed before anyone else can upload a photo to their Facebook profile.

There is one other aspect that is unique to this network...Monetization. Much like pay-per-view, Pheed offers the ability for individuals to charge for live broadcasts. Others may take advantage of this and charge just to view their profile. However, if you are offering an exclusive event and would like to monopolize on your talents...then this is the social networking site for you. There are many networks that offer distinct capabilities that seperate them. Pheeds' live interactions and broadcasts definatley attribute to this. In the future we may see more networks incorpotating their model.
