About PlayUltimate.us

What is PlayUltimate.us?

PlayUltimate.us is a site that uses coRank site services. To learn more abobut coRank, visit http://www.corank.com/.

PlayUltimate.us is a site where you can share whatever ultimate related news or media you find interesting on the web with people who value your opinion (whether you know who they are or not), and where you can also find what's interesting from people whose opinion are important to you - whether they know who you are or not.

In simpler terms: its the ultimate news decided by US - its PlayUltimate.us

Everything on PlayUltimate.us is submitted by PlayUltimate.us users, and after they submit a story, website, etc. other people will read it and give it a thumb up or down. If that story receives enough positive votes, it is promoted to the front page. But...!

While there are other sites offering similar services, in PlayUltimate.us each user has their own "front page", and the stories promoted to a user's front page are determined only by the votes of the people this user has previously selected - these are what we call, the user's sources.

Just a friends-driven social content website?

No. Friends are friends - there's mutual consent and it's a reciprocal relationship. In PlayUltimate.us, when you select who your sources are, you don't need consent from them, and you don't become a sources for them. It is not a reciprocal relationship.

Why sources, why not friends?

Because that's really how the world is when it comes to trusting other people's opinions.

Say there's a guy named Joe Whittman. Say I like how this guy thinks and I notice he has a PlayUltimate.us account. I would add him as one of my sources right away! I want his opinion count when my "front page" is being shaped up.

But hey, perhaps Joe doesn't even know who I am. Or perhaps he knows me but doesn't care what I think. Should he be forced to add me as one of his "friends" simply because I trust his opinion?

What are the PlayUltimate.us values?

Four words:

• Share - Submit web pages and stories you find interesting.

• Rank - Vote "up" what you like, or vote "down" what you don't.

• Control - Select only people whose opinion you trust, so you can...

• Discover - ...be informed of web pages that get a better ranking by those people you've selected.
