We always want new things, the social networks we already have are not giving us what we want. We’re turning to the new thing because it’s new, not because it’s good. As Twitter, to Google+ to Facebook, now the latest trend is made by Ello “Simple, beautiful, and ad-free social network“.
What is Ello?
Ello is proudly ad-free, featuring a minimalist design. The user interface is dominated by black, gray and white, with user pictures and posted photos being the only pops of color. It’s currently an invite-only social network. But that digital velvet rope seems to be increasing its appeal with the public.
The co-founder, Paul Budnitz, claims the company is receiving more than 45,000 signup requests per hour. That’s up from 31,000 just a couple weeks ago. The first wave of fans for the site appear to be largely from the LGBT and artistic communities.
So, How to get invited to Ello easily ?
