Private groups

So you may ask, what do i mean by private groups..
Imagine a place where only you and your best friends can talk whatever they wish to.
No unauthorized person can access or read what you and your friends are talking about.
The person doesnt even know that such a group exists.
Imagine a place where u can talk with your friends uninterrupted without the nuisance of spam, a place where spamming is just not possible.

Yeah, this has been made possible on www.grupus.com .

So how does it exactly work..

To start with anyone can register himself/herself on the site. If somone sends you an invitation, all the better. After somone registers he/she can form a new group and invite a maximum of 3 friends, 3 thats all..once the group is formed,
you can invite more people, but theres a strict voting policy.
Whomever is considered for an invitation to the group has to be approved by all the existing group members. Till even a single group member disapproves the invitation, it wont be sent..
This helps to ensure that only those people are invited into your friend group on whom everyone agrees.

So what are the advantages of such a friend group?
Numerous..
Firstly, it keeps unwanted people out, also it keeps the pesky guys and the nosey-parkers out. You can talk whatever u wish to without any interruption.
Secondly, there is no moderation. Who requires moderation when the information in the group can be accessed only by a few select persons which you and your friends have mutually decided upon.
Thirdly, there is no spam. How can someone spam if he/she is simply denied access to a group he/she doesnt belong to?

Yes, the advantages are numerous.

But did i tell you that these groups can also be used as private photo sharing networks..
More on that later.
