Every post you share, every friend you make and every link you follow is tracked, recorded and converted into data. Advertisers buy your data so they can show you more ads. You are the product that’s bought and sold. We believe there is a better way. We believe in audacity. We believe in beauty, simplicity and transparency. We believe that the people who make things and the people who use them should be in partnership. We believe a social network can be a tool for empowerment. Not a tool to deceive, coerce and manipulate — but a place to connect, create and celebrate life. You are not a product. ----- However how would they stay cash positive... Ah, the NSA. Oct 06 14 05:25 pm Link Apparently, they plan on offering premium services for a fee. Still have one more invite. Oct 06 14 05:49 pm Link Thank you also, Mr. Smalls, for your generosity. Once I have my account all set up, I will be in a position to also offer invites. Oct 06 14 06:00 pm Link Also got a few invites left. PM with email address if you need one.

Oct 15 14 01:53 am Link Isn't their plan to sell the user base when it hits a certain number of users??? Arent they emulating the Facebook model, but more efficiently? I don't get it.

They swear, they will never sell their user data, nor will they host ads on their network, like Facebook does. Oct 20 14 09:49 pm Link By the way, I've compiled a list of over 300 models on Ello. Another Ello user compiled a list of photographers on Ello, but not all of those photographers are model photographers. You can find links to these lists (and others) on my website: http://glenvision.com/ello/ Oct 20 14 09:53 pm Link T Smalls Photography wrote: It's going to be the same as P2P video games.

I have still some available. Send me your email in my MM Inbox and I'll send you an invite from Ello. Oct 31 14 01:21 pm Link I did a recent blog post on Ello.co if you want to get the lowdown: http://modelmelissakat.blogspot.com/201 … o-can.html I really like it! You can post adult content, GIFS, etc. ... it is a site for freedom, but has been classified as a social site via the media. It is a site geared towards artists. It is great for a nice browse and discovering new artists. Nov 02 14 03:02 pm Link |
