The last few weeks we have been working on fixing some bugs and design elements. So here is the latest update.
Profile Image on My Personal page is upgraded to provide editing options. So now, you can cut your head off if you don’t like to show it.
2nd Level Connections table is a lot more organized and neat. Also we fixed the bug that was repeating your connections.
When you roll your mouse over your 2nd Level Connection, you get to see how you got your connection. In other words, you get to see your connection history or source of your connection.
That is all for today. We would like to thank everyone for your feedback. We are constantly improving the site, so please feel free to shoot us an email if you have any feedback or ideas for NetHooks.

Here are some of the features of NetHooks that will be released as part of our Alpha release.
Social Elements – NetHooks is a professional networking site that provides social networking elements all on the same platform. This means that you can have a personal profile with pictures and comments on the same profile. The best part of this feature is the privacy feature where you can choose to display the page publically for everyone to see or privately to only selected individuals.
Q/A section – NetHooks offers a Q/A page which allows users to post specific questions to others. Users have the option to display their answers publicly on their Q & A section for others to see (this prevents answering the same questions multiple times).
Sample Work – NetHooks allows university students to display some of their works as part of their profile. Users can post sample works such as sample codes, art, thesis paper, designs, blue prints and etc.
Screen Contacts - This privacy feature allows users to set screening questions before a user can start contacting you. The purpose of this feature is to allow you to control the quality of users who can connect with you.
Internship listings – NetHooks will be one of the only sites to provide a comprehensive list of internships online. Internship service is currently free for all users.
Job Postings – NetHooks also provides job posting services within the site. Job postings are currently free for all users.
