Diy.org: A DIY community tailored for children

Today, social networks have become a part of life where people watch news, make friends, and share their lives. But for children, there is still no one of their exclusive world, parents do not trust to let children alone in the network gallop. Based on this fact, a San Francisco start-up company launched Diy.org: A DIY community built for kids. In DIY, children can make their own graffiti painting, toys, life of various fun photos and other children DIY things to share the platform. At the same time, children can learn how to make all kinds of toys through the community. Once a work or project has been completed, children can receive not only the corresponding virtual badge on the website, but also the beautiful physical entity badge by mail. Through this project and incentive mechanism, not only can the children have fun, but also let them grasp the modern life of many practical skills. Isaiah Saxon, a DIY founder, said: "The social network is mostly about what you like, not what you're doing (What you like,not What)." All we have to do is create a DIY experience for kids that they can get the skills they need. Because it's a community of children, it does a lot of protection in terms of privacy. In the registration stage, clearly told the children do not use the real name of the register with pseudonym, registered children can not use the real photos as a personal homepage (profile) of the picture, it registered in the first step let you choose funny animal avatar as head portrait (see below). At the same time, the entire registration process needs to provide a parent's permission message to complete. For its business model, DIY will not use children's data to put any ads, but through the pay membership system to gain. Its founder, Saxon, says parents are willing to pay for it if they can provide a community that the real kids like and the parents Trust.
