Storyus® is the family-friendly storytelling platform.
No 'likes' ♥. No public follower counts. No Adverts.
You 'own' your story and you decide how to share it with those closest to you.
There can be a lot of negative tendancies arising from deriving the value of your stories from social 'likes' and 'follower counts' especially with the young or those with waning self-confidence. We are bombarded from all angles by increasingly sophisticated marketing channels and advertisments, detracting attention and meaning from our own lives and values and perspectives, to suit the agendas of big business. Indeed, many social networks effectively sell your attention to advertisers, which is why they don't need to charge you money for the service.
Social sharing is certainly important, and the bonds of friendship & kinship are forged through shared experiences, and strengthened and reinforced through reflecting and storytelling. However, we think there is a better way to capture, curate and celebrate your experiences.
Simple reflection on positive memories can have a positive effect on your mood and well being.
