Turkish social networking

This morning I was reading this article on Sortipreneur, and although the point he was trying to make had to do with something else entirely, the thing that I personally got out of it was that there’s more to Turkish social networking than I realised. In the article I discovered links to both Yonja and Mondus, two Turkish social networks I hadn’t been aware of. I went and signed up for both— if you’re at either of the sites, please feel free to friend me: my Yonja / my Mondus

Incidentally, if anyone is a Mondus expert, I’d be interested to know how to personalise the url for one’s profile page. It was easy enough to change on Yonja, but my Mondus profile has this ridiculous url that no one can ever be expected to find, much less remember, and I can’t work out how to change it into something more reasonable.

Also, please let me know in the comments if you know of other Turkish social networking sites, because I’m thinking this would be a good opportunity for me to practice my written Turkish.

    As of yet, there’s no way to personalize the URL on Mondus, since unlike some of the more personalization-oriented social networking sites, Mondus URLs can only be reached once you’re inside Mondus, logged in and authenticated. It’s in our product development pipeline so do watch out for it, though.

    We hope you get the chance to practice your Turkish on Mondus. Our members find that the key making one’s experience on Mondus more fruitful and enjoyable is connecting with people you already know. You’ll see that we’ve made it very effortless to invite your friends, with tools to get the word out to your friends in address books in Gmail, Yahoo, hotmail and outlook.

    Aaaah, I see – well, I’m looking forward to personalising my URL whenever that becomes available. In the mean time, I’m liking Mondus a lot and am looking forward to making lots of friends there.
