Launched And Loaded (With Penn Talent)
March 3, 2010 at 1:14 pm
The latest Penn-related website to jump on the social networking bandwagon launched on Monday-- and it's called PennLaunch. It's a searchable database for Penn students, staff, and faculty to advertise their skills and find groups and/or projects to join.
We really like the concept here (as well as the half-crescent-half-people on the logo), and the PennKey login gives us a comforting dose of legitimacy. But PennLaunch does seem a little discriminatory--at least according to their self-description. The site might as well post a sign that says: "No talents. No quirks. No service." What happens to the run-of-the-mill Econ major? I guess time will tell, but better pick up some origami or C++ skills real quick if you stand a chance in PennLaunch.
