What does this give me that Facebook or Twitter don't? How are you trying to market it? or sell it? Or get people to use it?

What does it do for me?

In the last two months, we have received over 2million visits from students in 110 countries which is huge considering we went public in December.

1. We offer unique study groups to students to meet online and study together

2. We offer over 10,000 course resources for free to students. These courses are gathered from over 200 partner universities globally.

3. We offer students live academic help from professors from these universities to enable them better their academics.

I dont believe twitter or facebook can offer this now.

About marketing, there is little done about that because we are currently operating with personal funds. Once we get a seed investment, we can further our marketing and sales.

thanks

I live in Japan, waited half a minute for the site to load, lost patience.
apologies really. am seriously working on the site load speed. looking for a better host to move on to. all go round the pricing for what i may consider efficient. this slowness will soon be over. thanks for checking in by the way.
No problem. I have a lot of interest in independent learning, so I might try to check in in the future and see how things are.
