Blellow beta is microblogging for freelancers and businesses looking to hire them.
The best place to start is by filling out your profile with your picture. When you fill out your bio line, portfolio and resume sites this will enable other freelancers or those looking to hire you access to your resume and sites. In order to communicate to one another, the platform is similar to Twitter. You would use the @ symbol once again to send messages back and forth. Following each other is also similar to Twitter.
Private messaging is also another feature the site provides. The home page is your hub to your profile and other features such as picking up your @ replies, private messages or visiting your groups with a simple click.
Groups are also a part of the site enabling you to meet more people and contacts. Sending messages to the group is a different form of messaging. It uses the % symbol with the name of the group. Featured groups include ruby on rails, career advice, and SEO strategies.
The job board enables businesses to post the jobs they are offering, and the project board is similar to locating work for larger projects. The job board is separated into categories such as design, development, writing, sales and other. You can also choose freelancing or full time options. The projects are separated into paid or pro bono.
They also have a page on meet ups, however that has not been used yet. An rss feed is available to add to your blog or website. In the settings you can also place your status for work.
The blellow blog is worth investing some time reading and learning about the site and progress.
