Make Hubz with Hubzilla
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
**What are Hubz?**
|
|
|
|
Hubz are general-purpose websites built with **Hubzilla**. Every website member can create their own unique website or social space, and these can all share and interact.
|
|
|
|
Hubz all over the internet "magically" connect together to create very large social networks, websites, and communities; and *these* can all share and interact.
|
|
|
|
Members of *my* Hubz can easily and securely share stuff with members of *your* Hubz. Anything with anybody. Publicly, or **privately**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Hubzilla** is open source and built on PHP/MySQL/Apache (Mariadb or Postgres and Nginx could also be used, we're pretty easy).
|
|
|
|
Hubz are
|
|
|
|
* decentralised
|
|
* social
|
|
* privacy-enabled (privacy exclusions work across the entire internet to any registered identity on any compatible Hubz)
|
|
* optionally inter-networked with other hubs
|
|
|
|
Possible website applications include
|
|
|
|
* decentralised social networking
|
|
* personal cloud storage
|
|
* managing organisational communications and activities
|
|
* small business websites
|
|
* public and private media/file management and access
|
|
* blogs
|
|
* event promotion
|
|
* feed aggregation and republishing
|
|
* forums
|
|
* pretty much anything you can do on a traditional blog or community website, but that you could do better if you could easily connect it with other websites.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hubzilla members can also interact to varying degrees with several independant social networks such as Diaspora, Redmatrix, and Friendica; and can cross-post published items to a large number of other social and communication providers via plugins. |
