The Skirt
I heard of a new site for women you may find interesting. It’s called sk*rt.
I joined up as soon as I read the post. I was excited. A new place to promote my website and for free. I really thought it would be a great thing.
This site is for women. It is a place where you can post your favorite sites, “articles” online and vote on sites, “articles” other people have submitted. You get a bookmarklet button to help you submit sites and information you find interesting. Sounds easy so far right? Well, when you submit a site it goes into the “up and coming” section. There it seems, that your submssion waits until it becomes popular. It is still viewable and members are able to vote while it is in “up and coming”.
When you click on an interesting “article” it automatically tells you you’ve voted. If it turns out you did not like the “article” you can change your mind and remove it or say that you didn’t like it. You can also save it and comment on it too. It seems like a simple site to navagate and learn. However….
When I joined, I found there was nowhere to put my personal information or my site information. (How do you make “friends” or become a fan or get a fan?) I looked at what they had to offer, and mostly all it is is shopping (name brand), family information, celebrity gossip, health and beauty articles. All have good articles submitted, yes. I was able to submit my own site after a bit of an unanswered problem, and I know I have not been a member long. I will wait to show judgement on this site for later.
Have you joined Sk*rt? How is it working for you?
