Features:

NEW! Interactive Photo & Video Galleries

Media sharing is one of the most popular activities in social networking. That’s why having interactive photo & video galleries in your community is so crucial to it’s success.

In JomSocial 1.2+, your community will thrive as users can now…

Upload videos directly to your community or embed videos from 3rd party video sharing sites such as Youtube, Vimeo, Blip.tv, MySpace videos and more! Video-posting capabilities are built right into JomSocial… so there’s no need for separate video components to configure.

Create, comment on & share interactive photo galleries with online friends. And in JomSocial, there’s no need to worry about inappropriate media being posted to your community, either. Admins have total control over what is posted and can easily delete suggestive or copyrighted material.

NEW! Facebook Connect

Facebook has now eclipsed MySpace as the #1 most popular social network on the planet. With over 200 millions active users worldwide, chances are someone registering at your community will already be a member of Facebook.

To make the registration process hassle-free, we’ve even included our new Facebook-Connect login-module in JomSocial 1.2, so your members can log-in to your JomSocial-powered community using their Facebook account details.

Profile pics, status updates & more are “pulled” in safely & securely from Facebook, making it easy for new and exisiting users to sign up and stay logged into your community.

NEW! MyBlog 3.0 Integration

Blogs are a good way to keep new visitors coming back to your site for more! And in JomSocial 1.2, your members can have their very own blogs, post entries directly from their profile pages, and share those blog posts with friends via the New MyBlog3/JomSocial plugin (*MyBlog 3.0, a separate purchase, must first be installed on your server).

Additionally, your members’ blog posts will now show up in your community’s Activity Stream; JomSocial Avatar support is included, and each member can accumulate “user points” with every blog post they make.
