Carpe Diem Online Help

This site provides a place where you can share your photos, your thoughts, and maintain online conversations with your family and friends while maintaining a sense of privacy from the open Internet. Not everyone can use this site. To gain access to this site you must be given a user name and password. To get a user name and password, you need to be invited by an existing member. It is this invitation process that keeps the site private to family and friends.

Once you login to the site, you can begin to establish your online presence on the site by creating a profile about yourself. You can also establish lists of contacts which can be used to control who can view your content as well as define a buddy list of users that you want to stay in touch with and be notified when they add new content to the site.

After you have created your profile you can begin to share your photos, create and contribute to your blog, and contribute to online conversations. You can also maintain a list of favorite items and include and watch videos within your content. Your content can be made public for the entire site to view or made private for a select few to view. You can define who can view your content.

Why did we create this site? We wanted a place where our family and friends can share their life online with no strings attached and feel safe that only people they trust can view their content. We want you to freely use and enjoy this site. However, no matter how many bells and whistles exist on a site or how many features the site has to offer, the site will only be as good as you make it. Contribute and then keep contributing. Don't be shy. Create and contribute to online discussions. Create your blog and continue to add to it. The site can be extraordinarily fun or extraordinarily boring. It's up to you.
