## What is Olocal?

Olocal is a web platform to enhance your local community. Connect with people, join or create groups, find out what's happening and what people are creating, share your own creations and thoughts, and uncover the many hidden treasures all around you. 

Olocal includes both a public side and a private side. The public website includes posts of events, places, blogs, providers (businesses and organizations), public conversations and groups.

The private side of Olocal is for members. Each member has their own site within Olocal that we call a portal. A portal is customizable, and is the launch pad from where you can see all of your friends and any groups you created or joined, and choose what you want to do next. For example, you might talk to one or many people over text (audio and video chat coming soon), create posts on your portal or also include them on the main site, create a gallery of images, videos, and documents, set up meetings, buy people’s creations, or create or respond to classifieds and job listings.

You can also create or join circles which are our unique way of organizing groups of people for posting thoughts and information on your own portal or also on the main site, and facilitating private or public conversations over text, audio and video, along with collaboration tools such as shared documents, screens and whiteboards — kind of chat meets forums meets microblogging meets collaboration tools.

The Olocal platform is a different approach to social interaction on multiple levels – locally focused, serving members rather than advertisers, socially conscious and inclusive, supporting artists and creators, combining multiple web and social media technologies that together are greater than the sum of the parts, and designed to enhance your local community rather than replace it.
