VZ as a real competitor for Facebook and Co

[bhasan01854]

Facebook and most other networks are focused on timeline activities. However, this also makes them very self-centered. It's mostly about presenting yourself. At VZ.net, groups are the driving force instead - this is how social networks should become truly social again.

The VZ Group also does not want to commercialize user data, linkedin database as the Facebook Group does. MeinVZ and its successor are also financed through advertising , but this is selected based on self-declared interests and not by evaluating the data.

Finally, the nostalgia factor is also very high. People want to meet old friends again and talk about what they are doing now and who used to have the worst hairstyles. That is what the operators of the new VZ network are counting on.
