Detailed Description
I started this project on August 7 and finished it in September 19. It is a social network mainly (or firstly) oriented for Club Penguin users but that may evolve for other games. Since Club Penguin is a big game for children and has a lot, seriously, a lot, of websites made mainly for posting news about the game, the idea of making a Social Network for the game with topics and followings was really good. The website reached almost 500 users y 3 weeks with a not really big advertising. It has the following features:
- Register and login. Register requires email and both register and login requires CAPTCHA to prevent flood attacks or brute force attacks. The login has a "remember me" option and also a "forgot my password" option. They're also protected against SQL Injection attacks or Full Path Disclousure. It has 2 places where users can login or register. In the main page or in its respective pages (login,sign_up) with a nice design oriented for Club Penguin but that may be changed.
- Puffs. In Club Penguin there are waits to get mascots called "puffles". Because of that, the messages in the website are called Puffs. Which are like tweets or posts. In them, they can also attach images. They have a max length of 365 characters, which may be 366 characters for next year (seems like joking, right?).
- Repuffs. A way to share the puffs of someone else.
- Mentioning. Users can be mentioned, like in Twitter, with @user.
- Messaging. Users can send messages to other users in real time, and press enter to send messages. Like a realtime chat.
- Following system. Users can follow each other to see the other's users updates.
- Profiles. Every user has its own profile which may be accessible from socialpenguin.net/user. Profile also have cover pictures and profile pictures.
- Trendings. A trendings system with the most recent hashtags ordered by the amount of puffs which contains them.
- 2 languages. The entire website is available in English and Spanish.
- Search. Users can search puffs, videos, photos and users.
- Good google SEO. It has a good SEO, even in my Google search it appears before other website that came first, like Github, Wikipedia, or Twitpic (that's of course, for a user like me).
- Emoticons.
- Favorites.
Why am I selling this?
It took me almost 2 months to finish this. And I made the whole code alone (with the help of Twitter Bootstrap and jQuery as frameworks). I don't have the money enough to keep growing it. I can't advertise it, I just can write code. But I already did, and it's not enough. I'm basically giving this up, but as it took me one month and it's a big project I don't want it just to die.
Disney might buy this in a future, if someone grows it and makes it something attractive for their game, Club Penguin, but that won't be me because I am not able to. And if I stay with it, it will just die.
