AROUNDMe is the perfect solution for anyone wishing to create a collaborative social space on the Web.
With AROUNDMe you can create one or many webspaces (web sites). In each webspace you get tools such as a wiki, blog and forum from which you can build your social space!
You can make your webspace private meaning that only those people that you invite in can see your webspace or open meaning that anyone can see it.
With open webspaces anyone with an OpenID can connect to your webspace and join in the fun if you have given them permissions to contribute.
AROUNDMe is free. You can download it and make your own webspace, webspaces for your family and friends or a wider community of people.
