CrushSpot is the premiere online community
website for meeting new people online, for platonic and/or romantic
relationships. CrushSpot allows you to create a user profile where
you can upload pictures and post a little or a lot about yourself.
You can send members public messages on their message board or
private messages in notes. CrushSpot users also receive a blog, or
web log, short for online journal, where they can post their
thoughts and opinions on things going on in their life or anything
in general. There's also a forum for public discussion on a variety
of topics. Photo albums, Chat Rooms, and a site Instant Messenger
are also in the works.
It was open for user registration as of
March 7th, 2005. Design began late December 2004 and was
continuously tested throughout the construction of the site.
The
site was created by Mr.Fern. When the decision to create the site
was made, multiple names were considered. However, many of the
names either received negative feedback from friends or the domain
names were already taken. CrushSpot was the first name that was
available and received positive feedback. The name was set from
there.
