    I recently made an account over there, but it seems pretty inactive, does anyone even use it? I tried to look up info about ti, but There, really isn't anything about it.
    Is it new? Is it old? Is it Dead?

    Risa was set up over a year ago now then it was very popular but siice its rebanding its gone down hill.

    I give 100% respect to Richard Evans the man that came up with the idea at the time it was a great one.

    But as you can see its traveling at sub impulse speed now Smile

    It's hard to make a social networking site to compete with the current market.

    A learning experience for the developers, if they did most of the code themselves, experience is pretty useful even if a project fails. Many small social network sites still keep going, no matter how small of a share they get, some people enjoy it! It's all about what you get out of something at the end of the day.

    A few years ago a friend of mine and I started a social networking site together. I coded the entire project by myself... It took me 6 months to get it right and once we did it only last for another 6 months before he and I had a falling out. It was ton's of fun and I still have the code and can put that on a resume but that's about the only thing I'm happy about.

    As for this particular website it seems pretty cool and it's saddening to see the end of something that has so much potential.
