Onsari A Poly-Purpose Social Network

Update: Onsari obviously is a joke, see Onsari Raises 6 Million In Monopoly Money

onsari is yet another social network which launched two days ago. The site has all the features you might expect: you can create a profile, hunt for friends, send them messages, upload photos and organise them in albums, write a blog, a guestbook and so on.

What’s interesting is that onsari seems to be schizophrenically indecisive about their target user group, whether they should go for the party crowd looking for events and flirts, for students, for business folks, for real estate agents or for aspiring models.

There is a competition for becoming onsari’s next topmodel, there is a section for buying or renting real estate, they are teaming up with organisers of events and want to promote them on onsari, they want to host private and business events themselves, they want to be all sorts of things to all sorts of people. It doesn’t really help that the site is mostly implemented in flash which at times is responsible for below average load times without really providing a superior experience.

onsari was developed by Patrick Landrock, Marc Antwertinger and Thomas Fankhauser, they are based in Leinfelden-Echterdingen.
