Today we are excited to announce the release of NetHooks Multiple Profiles. Users on NetHooks can now create unlimited number of professional profiles allowing them to showcase different skills and interests. NetHooks Multiple Profiles comes with a smart tagging functionality that allows users to effectively present their profiles to specific target users.
For instance, if a user decides to apply for a position at a company, he can create a profile for that company, highlighting his experience and approach specific for that position and ‘tag’ the profile, so that only those from that company will see the highly specific profile. This is the first time that Multiple Profiles are being introduced into professional networking, giving users the ability to present high quality profiles to specific target groups, increasing their chances of getting a job, internship or acquiring business leads.

We are finally launching our Alpha release - NetHooks My Professional Network facebook app.
The introduction of professional networking on Facebook is one of the first steps NetHooks is taking to provide NetHooks users the ability to access their data and network externally through applications. The introduction of professional networking on social networking sites such as Facebook is in line with NetHooks’ vision to create an effective networking portal and make professional networking more convenient for users. NetHooks will soon be releasing their Professional Networking application on Bebo, MySpace, Hi5, Orkut and Friendster.
NetHooks’ My Professional Network application allows users to engage in professional networking right on the application without having to visit the main NetHooks website.
One of the unique features of NetHooks Facebook application is the ability for users to easily join NetHooks without having to go through the registration process. The application is also setup with an auto login feature which allows users to enter NetHooks website without having to input their username and password.
By using NetHooks professional networking application, users on Facebook will be able to search and network with professionals outside their Facebook network. Users are able to connect, contact and send recommendations to other professionals from the application.
Users’ privacy is important to NetHooks, especially in having a professional networking application on a social networking site. When using the My Professional Network application on Facebook, users’ Facebook profiles are kept private and are not linked to their professional profile.
We will continue to update the application over the next few weeks based on users feedback and suggestions. We are looking forward to an official launch soon.

Basically we would like to update our users on what we are working on and what they could expect in the next few weeks to months.
Okay, we have been working on our Facebook and Bebo apps recently and we are expecting to test these apps in the next few weeks. We are excited about it especially the user interface of the apps. Well, at least we like it.
Apart from Facebook and Bebo apps, we will also be perfecting the website and adding few new features.
We will keep you updated on the releases.
Cheers.
