Yunnoh is out of closed beta... now in... erm... Beta...
After months of development, we proud to introduce the new (and ever changing) look of Yunnoh.com (version 0.4) which we are currently releasing to everyone for beta testing.
The main goals of the change in layout are:
1. Improve usability of the website.
2. Improve information snapshots at the home page (focus the user to new user activities).
3. Improve advertisement stream.
The goals of the beta testing phase are:
1. Identify and fix existing bugs.
2. Get important feedback, comments and suggestions from users before formal launch.
3. Get users acquainted with the look and feel of the site’s features.
You know what to do!

Hello Partners!
Thank you all for your interest on being part of Yunnoh! Thank you for testing the site, making suggestions, and help improving the functionalities.
We are 2 weeks away before launching the site to the public, but we cannot do it without THE team. We are on the final stages of structuring the model we are going to implement. With this, we need to determine which team you’ll be on.
Founding Members / Partners
• Will have to take responsibility for the outcome of the company
• Will have equity depending on how much is invested
• Will have executive positions, corresponding on the roles and responsibilities accepted
• Will manage Team Yunnoh! according to the determined role
• Think Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz, Andrew McCollum, Chris Hughes and Sean Parker
Investors
• Should be an angel (read up: angel investor)
• Will have equity depending on how much is invested
• Will not have deciding powers (just seat back, relax, and make money – no guarantees!)
• Willing to risk it, to get the biscuit!
Team Yunnoh!
• No risk is involved, just do your job and make money!
• Will not have equity, but will earn paycheck according to agreement
• The outcome of Yunnoh! is in your hands
• Be a consultant, work with your own team, outsource it, just make sure your task is completed
After deciding what team you belong to, choose a role you are best at (functions may overlap):
• General Manager – strategies, direction, operations and dealing with investors
• Marketing Manager – in charge of monetizing Yunnoh!
• Technical Manager –manage 3rd party tech vendors
• Project Manager – in charge of upgrades, functionality additions, etc
• Site Administrator – manage overall Yunnoh! website
• Accounting – manage money
• Social Media Manager – track and manage overall brand reputation and positioning
• Content Manager – manage content, user contribution, participation
• Lawyer – creates and reviews legal docs, accountable in protecting Yunnoh!
• Populating team
• Article creation team
• Social media marketers
Get it? No? Let’s have a meeting.
BTW, the business aspect of the site is still in limbo. I don’t want to start brainstorming by myself, but… I do have ideas on how to monetize this. Then again, this is democracy, let’s brainstorm together.
Regards, Yunnoh! Management Team

We are currently engaged in a social network development project. The site is already in closed beta and is currently approaching live status. Aside from development, we are tasked to populate the site with users and content.
With this, We are looking at individuals/teams with expertise to deliver what is expected.
Do you have capability to do the following:
• Copy creation
• User population and activity
• Events population
• Forum topic creation and participation
• Q&A participation
• Article creation
• Marketplace participation
• Groups creation
Basically, you would need to populate the site with users and raise site activity by utilizing its features.
Let us know if you are interested in taking on this project. Please send me a proposal on how you plan to implement your strategy, along with the cost involved. Thanks!
