This includes free advertising to the general public or other businesses within our network.  From small-town shops to big-city enterprises, from Main Street to Wall Street and every road in between, no matter where your business may be, we want your time spent in this network, to be such that you will proudly say, "This is my kind of network."  Our My Network businesses network has its own behind the scenes feeds, for business-to-business communications or private communications to your in-house business teams. You have your own business desk editor and publisher, wherein you can post to whomever you want such as to your team members only, or publish articles to the business's feeds, as well as post free advertisements to your business followers and friends or to other businesses. Furthermore, you can write full blown web quality articles about product reviews.    You may freely advertise in the news feeds, and the My Network feeds from your My Network application here at Mynet. Publishing ads and articles of the product review nature are not allowed in our My Magazine feeds. Advertising in the magazine sections is for Mynet only. However, read below if you want to place an ad in My Magazine within a legitimate journalistic article, we do allow you to monetize such articles.  Mynet allows for those who publish to My Magazine the ability to monetize their post via adding one reasonable sized photo ad and a three monetized links. The post should be an informative journalistic article about anything but a product promotion or a full-blown commercial advertising article; and must topically be within the select categories listed in the magazine post editor. Our editors will remove commercial articles and product and se...

]]>Thu, 22 Jan 2026 19:00:28 GMT  Mynet is currently in its startup phase and needs a better server to host the platform as we prepare to go public and offer membership to anyone interested in joining. Right now, the demo works well enough to showcase Mynet’s concepts and features. Our offline server is great for development, but since it runs on a private PC, it lacks the storage space and bandwidth needed for a large online community. That’s why we need to secure an enterprise-level server that’s designed for the type of software Mynet uses.  This demo is fairly easy to follow, by just clicking the buttons in the top-level navigation bar above. Mynet offers a range of features to suit users’ needs, from an easy-to-use tool for posting updates on timelines and news feeds to a rich text editor for crafting website-quality articles for our news feeds. There’s also a dedicated business network feed called My Network. Plus, we have a magazine section where certain kinds of posts are showcased in a magazine-style format, giving our members content a polished presentation for social media audiences and the public. So, if a member is looking for public exposure and a following, this is the place to get it.  Our members have their own editing desk and office for posting to My Magazine and their business network. This includes tools for note-taking; an events and appointments calendar, and reminders, where they can share public events or keep private date reminders and personal notes.  Mynet also offers a dynamic platform for creative individuals in online streaming, broadcasting, and journalism, equipping them with tools to help boost user engagement with the content they share on our network.  We believe this demo of Mynet will give visitors during this stage of our enterprise a clear view of the alternative vision and concept we offer in social media. It’s easy to see that Mynet is a more engaging network, packed with unique features and tools design... Read more

]]>Tue, 20 Jan 2026 11:35:02 GMT Mynet and its magazine feature the kind of journalism you’d usually find on blogs, news, and magazine sites. We offer a rich text editor that any member can use whenever they want to create high-quality, article-based content for publishing.  You can record a video using the Feed or My Magazine Post options, and it will be processed and added to your post. For live streaming, simply use our live streaming app to broadcast directly to the Live Feeds.  Regarding this demo platform, the current host’s resources aren’t sufficient to handle the volume of live streams and video uploads required for a fully operational social media network. Therefore, with the support of sponsors, contributors, and angel investors who share this vision, we aim to secure an enterprise server to host our network. And it is for these reasons, we provide this demo to illustrate to all of interest, what Mynet has envisioned for free use by everyone across this nation.

]]>Thu, 22 Jan 2026 19:28:37 GMTMynet, as a free enterprise, operates out of the Cumberland Gap region in Kentucky, close to several notable institutions. These include Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, TN, the University of Kentucky Southeast in Middlesboro, KY, the Cumberland Gap College in Barbourville, KY, and the historic Clear Creek Bible College in Pineville, KY—all within a twenty-mile radius of Mynet Headquarters. Furthermore, not far from here is Oak Ridge National Laboratories in Tennessee, which is now the US Department of Energy research center devoted to such things as renewable energy and energy efficiency research. And additionally, north of us is IBM with its worldwide headquarters in Lexington. Which was the first high tech computing center in the states, established before Silicon Valley. And who knows, what sort of artificial intelligence IBM has brewed up in Lexington. They are the world leaders in research and business computers. Actually, they were one of the first to offer AI solutions with mainframe hardware.When I was younger, I was involved in electronics, and I still am. Back then, I lived near Louisville and often visited several local companies that sold electronic parts, like semiconductors and high-tech electronics testing equipment, which were distributed locally and across the USA. These businesses also supplied parts inventories for various industries. At the time, General Electric at Appliance Park was one of Louisville’s largest employers, and now it has returned, once again becoming a major industry there. I think people sometimes stereotype Kentucky and don’t realize we live in the twenty-first century, with all kinds of visions for the future—especially given the impressive things Kentucky has accomplished in the past.My vision is to allow this region of the world to lead itself, following its vision. And hence, to not be led by the visions of Silicon Valley, since we have our own history and culture on this side of the Rockies.&n...

]]>Sat, 24 Jan 2026 08:09:59 GMTWhether you call it a franchise or an association for collaborative and joint ventures, Mynet proposes an arrangement for the mutual benefit of both Mynet and the Associates who join.We envision perhaps publishing companies who promote social media advertising as an advertising agency, or as an agency that specializes in creating advertisement graphics and videos for their clients, could in effect open up an office as a Mynet Associate. Which simply means that we associate for business purposes. Where Mynet would have to be aware of the associate and authorize them.Collaborating, we agreed to work together, sharing profits from advertising, with the understanding that this will come into play once we’ve grown our membership base enough to create the right platform for advertisers. We’re confident that we’ll continue to grow and become competitive in the world of social media.If this interest you then consider this in the future, furthermore, if you think that the concepts of Mynet are worthwhile and want to aid in the establishment of Mynet as an online service through a reliable hosting platform, then contribute to us.Dannie Jackson130 N Laurel St,Pineville, KY 40977dan@dan@mynet.socialI want to thank Surabhi Shenoy at LinkedIn for providing me with some mention and exposure to her network of followers.

]]>Sun, 25 Jan 2026 23:39:37 GMT   Every social media site needs to work well on phones, whether Android or iPhone. This is made possible through responsive website design, where elements resize and menus adapt to fit smaller screens, and mobile ad spots appear as desktop ones disappear. As a web developer, you often find yourself resizing your browser on a PC to view the mobile layout and compare it with the desktop version. That’s just how it’s done. You can do the same here using your PC browser, and compare views to see how Mynet looks on Phone.   In recent years, modern technology has introduced something called Progressive Web Technology, which transforms a website or network like ours into an online app by leveraging its responsive capabilities. Both phone and PC browsers can prompt us to install the site as an app, giving us instant access to it just like a native application.   An app made from Progressive Web Technology is referred to as a progressive web app or PWA.   The great thing about this is that it reduces the cost of developing phone apps. If you’re using Microsoft Edge on your PC, or another browser with PWA capability, you can install nearly any website as an app on your computer, organize all your apps in a folder, and easily find the site you need.   On top of the cost of developing a phone app, developers often want to host it on their own servers and charge a hefty fee for it or sell the app to you for another steep price, like $5000. Thankfully, we don’t have to deal with that anymore. These expenses can be pretty overwhelming for someone starting a new business or venture. And you know how it is, everything you need for creating things and for working online doing business cost something. Furthermore, the cost of an app would be more than it cost to host Mynet on an enterprise server platform. And way more in fact.   Well, our site has a PWA installed into it, via certain scripts that instruct browsers about the PWA and how to render it.   Setting up a few PWA web files ...

]]>Mon, 26 Jan 2026 10:41:49 GMTI like how Mynet works because, on one hand, you get the familiar social media feed everyone knows, and on the other, you can have a website-style layout for certain sections of the network, which makes presenting content more interesting. It’s great for PC users who get the full view, but the phone version is also colorful and appealing, and I am happy with how it looks.I think Mynet takes social media to the next level in the Twenty-First Century, making it a trendsetting platform that many will want to use for its improved way of presenting published content. For many, it will be the first time seeing their social media articles and posts in a website format, which can inspire them to keep creating and even consider starting their own website, maybe a WordPress site.With the site layout and its engaging networks and feeds, I also explored ways to offer more advertising opportunities for anyone interested in using Mynet in the future. I wanted to give them options for where to place ads across the network and provide more chances for visibility, rather than just competing for attention in the timeline news feed.Social media serves both personal communication and connection, as well as business purposes, for small businesses and for influencers and creative talent who have business with social media and content monetization. It should bring together all the different interests' people have in using it into the overall network concept. I believe I’ve done this well in envisioning what will be useful for everyone. Over time, with lessons learned and insights gained, Mynet will continue to improve, with developers adding features to make it even more valuable.First, we need to start generating income through this network so we can pay the developers when we decide to add a useful application. I’m confident that whatever I eventually bring to Mynet will be visionary—otherwise, I wouldn’t want it. It must serve a meaningful purpose that enhances both work and creat... Read more

]]>Mon, 26 Jan 2026 13:04:50 GMTThis really is interesting, when you consider the masses of people who will in time come to a social media platform. Considering that within six to ten years it can grow to a million or more users. If you are considering such things as what a website or a social media network can make by providing advertising spots, we have to look at what merchant advertising clients pay for online advertising. And there are three models:1. Affiliate Publishers2. Cost per Milli or CPM3. Cost per Click or CPC  An Affiliate Publisher is someone who obtains ads for posting in various places on the internet, where they most often receive a commission on products sold to those who click on the ad and make a purchase. This works well on websites with a large amount of monthly traffic. Whereas a large social media site is the most ideal place to carry ads.  For general publishing on websites and social media networks, the other two methods of advertising are the most used.  Cost per Milli or CPM refers to the cost for 1000 ad impressions. Which refers to ads that are seen and thus impresses upon the memory of people, a brand or product or both. Impressions also refer to the fact that these ads are tracked on the network, and whenever they are viewed this is logged by the ad server as an impression. For 1000 ads to be seen this can cost $20 or more. Hence this refers to the cost per 1000 views. Where the CPM for this rate is $0.20 (20 cents) per ad seen for a maximum of 1000 ads. Of course, the advertiser may pay for as many as 10,000 to 100,000 ads to be seen.  Ad impressions are often used for brand or product promotion and hence brand or product awareness. Furthermore, these ads have a link embedded in them where people can shop and hence purchase services or products. Cost per Click. This refers to the price for an ad that is clicked on, which we can say is from $0.50 (50 cents...
