BRAINREPUBLIC

There is no dearth of social networks on the internet but they are either too Facebook-like or ridiculously random like Chatroulette. BrainRepublic aims to be somewhere in the middle by letting you connect to total strangers but only those that you have a common interest with or who offer help. You can even embed BrainRepublic on your own website or blog for free – to get in touch with cool people or even earn money with it.

The whole concept of socializing at BrainRepublic revolves around conversations and topics. You can create a new topic that you want to talk about and other people who are interested in it will connect with you. The conversation can then take place via a simple text chat or an audio/video or audio only chat with great quality. Alternatively, you can browse through the list of topics that other users want to talk about and jump in. If the other user is seeking professional advice, you can also choose to charge them a small fee.
