MG.Social: State of the Network Episode 3
In this video we discuss updates to the site:
-Coil gated login
-XRPtipBot tipping from postings.
-Embed videos from Cinnamon, TikTok and Bitchute.
We would like to announce a new feature for MG Social users: MP3 uploads. MG Social users can now upload and monetize their original audio content by posting MP3 files to the site.
Whether it's your bands demo, audio of a lecture you gave, your audio book or anything else, as long as you are the creator of the content you can post it on our platform and earn Coil monetization. The mp3 file will embed within your posting allowing other MG Social users to listen to your content while staying within the platform, ensuring you, the creator, receive monetization.
MG Social is currently in beta testing. If you would like to obtain early access to try out the site please email admin@mg.social.
In the first episode of MG Social: State of the Network I discuss
Coil OAuth approval, infinite scroll, site content and testing provided by PatricaC and AussieNinja, and an overall vision for the platform.
You can embed links to your existing YouTube and Vimeo videos and SoundCloud tracks on your MG Social account. MG Social will attach your specified payment pointer to these postings so while other MG Social users consume this content your account receives instant streaming micropayments.
This allows you to have another monetization option for your existing content that does not rely on advertisers. MG Social will add the capability to embed content from more popular sites and services as the site continues to develop
We are proud to announce the launch of MG Social, a new social network with web monetization powered by Coil.
The MG in our name stands for Monetized Gram.
mon·e·tize - earn revenue from (an asset, business, etc.).
gram – something written down, drawn, or recorded (telegram, electrocardiogram etc.).
Traditionally the business model for social media has consisted of a company (Twitter, Facebook etc.) providing a service (the social network) to their user base, and funding their operations from the revenue gained by the selling of user data to advertisers. The end user ends up not being a customer of the social network but the product being sold.
At MG Social we think differently. We have incorporated cutting edge Coil web monetization software within our social network to allow for an entirely new business model. Our social network rewards creators for the content they create as it is viewed by other subscribers in real time using streaming micro-payments. At MG Social your data will never be sold to advertisers.
All that is required is a $5 monthly subscription to Coil. For a list of other sites and services a Coil subscription grants you access to click here.
Having a Coil subscription as a requirement will allow MG Social to fund and scale operation of the platform ad-free. It will help ensure MG Social users are interacting with real live human beings, not bot or troll accounts. It also ensures posted content will always be monetized when viewed by other subscribers on the site.
MG Social upholds the U.S. first amendment protections and allows all legally permitted speech. Direct threats or incitement to violence is strictly prohibited. Offenders will be permanently banned.
