Nabaroo

Anyone heard about this or have a membership? I received an invite but I suspect it was just a sweep to get more "members".

Queen Amidala had to get back there after... wait, that was Naboo. Never heard of nabaroo I'm afraid.

No, I've never heard of it before, but then I'm not one for networking and I certainly don't get invited to sites. Wow, what must that be like? Either you feel like a celebrity VIP or you feel like you've just been spammed.
But it looks like a nice little site in a clean minimalist way, although the discussion area could do with a bit more in the way of options.

Yeah, I'm not a networker either, Valence, and I'm not even sure what Nabaroo is all about or what I'm supposed to do. It says it's new but there are comments from 11 months ago. I'm always a bit sceptical about "invites" and the like. I don't wish to be ungrateful, so it's nice, but I wonder what's in it for them?

I'm just sceptical when companies use the word "creative" as a noun. I remember once reading a novel set in the advertising world where this was mocked with the slogan "Creative creatives creating creative creative!" (Aside: I also don't like "reference" as a verb even though it's sort of acceptable in some cases. But it's hard to be a pedant when you can't type. )

I think all that Nabaroo "Nabbing" makes it a bit like Pinterest for artists. Or Collections in dA. But then again I don't understand dA either.

Yay I've got TWO invitation mails of them because I ignored the first xD So is NOW anybody there I know ? ^^

Seems like all the cool kids get invited.

And my inbox is still spam-free!

I received an invite a couple of days ago to another equally oddly named art site. I have no idea why I was invited though as all the artwork seemed to be very much Anime/Manga styled and I don't have any work like that.

Another one?? Makes me glad I'm off that particular grid.
As the doorman says, "Your name's not down, you're not coming in!"

Maybe you should send out your own invitations to all their members. Let's see how they like it!

Well we do have an invite system here.
