Today, I would like to tell you some details and concept for which we call "Group" on www.vinamaso.net.

You have participated quite lots of maritime forums/discussion boards but you have found that none of them is dedicated to you.

Now, you find the VinaMaSo which is the very first maritime social network in the world allowing people to reach others and expand their network.

Yes, it is your own network where you can discuss anything you desire. You will not be limited to any specific category but you can create any kinds of group and the number of groups is unlimited for you. You can invite your friends/colleagues who have the same view and interests as yours to join into your group.

Reading long text will not be as good as being seen, I believe. So, please follow this url and you will find a group which we have created for testing purpose: http://www.vinamaso.net/community/36...viewgroup.html
This group above is public to everyone but if it was your own one, you could afford to set it private so that it can be viewed by you and your group members only.

Thanks for your reading time and look forwards to seeing all of you there and we could be friends
