New social network, created by teenager

Well this website Youflik was created by a teenager from mangalore.Launched today.
According to me he's dead. and in great trouble.
He copied yahoo's logo check the y.
The starting page has a similarity with facebooks the MAP i mean.
So is he great legal trouble

I can also see feeds of people i dint Add #FAIL

But anyways a great work by a teen

YouFlik - You flicked from other sites

Lol...
dafuq this guy has a layout called"facebookish".Now im sure he will be sued.by some.
He has some good ideas though like you change the layout.But overall it doesnt have privacy.
Eg: click on today pictures,And you can see all pics uploaded by users(who are Not your friends) is that a privacy killer??

World map is not copyrighted by anyone..so he is safe there....
as for the Y..its a debatable question whether its copied or not..

ha ha

But if this is work of a single developer then i applaud his programming skills

^^ Yeah.Thats the only good part.That a 14/15 year old did this by himself

.A little more hardwork can make this site much better

He will get a good career start.

Awesome! Great talent cannot be supressed.

Yup!Maybe in the next two years.If his website gains traffic it will surely be much better.By that time he'll hire more ppl

O

Hope so... how much time had he spent on this????

Nice..!! But he totally copied facebook and integrated few extra components..!!

land of genius youths, our India!! :-D

C

maybe just a facebook clone script?

May not be, he integrated few other things too, which makes it All-in-One Social Networking site

its taken down isnt it??

i missed it

Yeah it's taken down

Says "You A/c has been suspended"

why was it suspended.

O

Think yahoo opposed...

Woah really its suspended?

looks exact copy of FB

^^ Maybe facebook put it down?

NOPE....
but he got busted

Shame Shame Puppy Shame !! | Nikhil Pai Blogs

Hahah!!He could have done something better.Maybe provide HTML tuts by starting a blog etc.

ok here is what I did.

My first doubt was which CMS/script/tool he has used to do it build the website..

I went through the script files of the site.. those were professionally build.. no way a kid can do that, I could not identify the framework he was using as there was not much information available in the source pages , I checked the whois details, but it was masked.

I checked couple of Free social media tools available but none of them matched.
as I couldn't identify the exact tool used to create his website, I couldn't accuse him of using a tool/framework.

and thanks to the link posted above .. I now know its phpfox

I would say that the boy went too far about publicity. I still do appreciate he managed to customize and host the application, cause I have seen many developers finding it difficult to host their own projects in a web host. so kudos to him.

^^Well i agree with you.But Why did the media without having any knowledge have to make a big hype about it??
They are so many other kids who have/Had done great things at his age.But there not interviewed or anything.But they silently continue there work??

lol...next Ankit Fadia in media.

so what is the kid's reaction now?

H

It is a phpfox v3 powered site, I know because I develop for it. You will find kids these day making a site with phpfox or social engine and then brag that they made it. It just took an hour to set it up. The process goes as follows:

1. Upload all the files through ftp
2. Chmod file permissions
3. Make a database and start installation procedure.
4. Make the customization like change the theme, name, logo and then brag I made it. :lol:

NO OFFENCE INTENDED.

facebook in black?
even the icons are matching.
