Profiles

HotKarz.com is planning to add an interesting new feature that will promote friendship. It is called Profiles.

Car folks such as yourself may choose to have a profile on HotKarz. The profile would include a snapshot of you and/or your spouse (with your vehicle), along with whatever other information you would like to share.

The objective is to allow others to get to know you, and vice versa. Then when you go to a show or cruise, "new" friends may come up to you and introduce themselves, because they have already "met" you on your profile. This promotes the making of new friends in an easy manner.

Examples of the things you can include in your profile:

NAME(s)
HOMETOWN
OCCUPATION(s)
FAMILY
HOBBIES
FAVORITE MOVIES, SONGS, BOOKS etc.
ABOUT YOUR VEHICLE(s)
PET PEEVES
THINGS YOU LIKE
EMAIL address, if you want to encourage contact
URL - if you have a website, you may add a link to it

You may add/choose your own categories if you wish
In any category, feel free to give as much info as you like (but try to limit commercials). For example:

OCCUPATION: A carpenter by trade for 32 years, I am self-employed and own BillyGoat Construction in Westbrook. We specialize in outdoor applications such as gazebos and decks. Our work can be seen from Kittery to Augusta. My wife, Sheila, is a registered nurse at Southern Maine Medical in Portland.

HotKarz readers would be able to click on the PROFILES link, and up pops a page with thumbnail pictures of participants, along with their name(s). The reader can then click on a thumbnail, and up pops that person's personal profile page.

The reason we would like the snapshot to include your vehicle is simply because it will help "new" friends to find and identify you at car shows, making it even easier to get a new friendship started.

To participate, simply email the info you wish to include. If you have a snapshot, email it. Otherwise, I will snap a pic the next time I see you at a show or cruise - but I don't get to them all, so sending one would be the better idea.

So, let's get those profiles together and send them to me.
