MyBubbleBuddies.com™ - a networking site similar in nature to FaceBook™ and MySpace™- was launched today. It is a serious site with a light hearted name for those involved in the profession and sport of underwater work, adventure and exploration. It is a place for networking underwater folks of any type – from hard core tech divers to commercial divers to sport/rec divers. There is even a section for SARTECH / Public service divers and free divers to gather. The site is for anyone with the common interest and experience - the people who venture below the waterline - anywhere!

(For those not familiar with networking sites, they are websites specifically for networking and linking those with common interests. For instance, if you are a friend of “Mike Nelson” and “Mike Nelson” is a friend of “Minney-the-Mermaid”, then you are indirectly a new friend of “Minney-the-mermaid” (and her BOYfriend “DepthCrusher”!) Or if you are a commercial diver who knows someone who has a friend working at your dream dive company, then you now have a connection into that company because a link is formed.)

 Site owner Doug Elsey- a life long undersea dweller (also with UnderwaterINDUSTRY and UnderwaterJOBS) said, “Having been involved in the diving industry for over 40 years - both as a sport and professionally - the one common thread in all of the diving community that I have noticed is the camaraderie of the participants. They are a close knit group of adventurers and explorers in sport, professional and military divers.”

 “I spent some time looking around for internet gathering places of sorts and found everything from forums to blogs to individual web places. Facebook™ had groups and MySpace™ had groups within major social groups but there appeared to be no one, single place that tied it all together. So, I decided to have a go at putting something that was similar to the community building web spaces at FaceBook™ and MySpace™ but for underwater people only - a place to network, discuss and trade yarns, tips and tricks amongst the underwater community.”

The site has unique and advanced features such as the inclusion of underwater videos, photo galleries, discussion groups (with the ability to form your own public or private groups), instant messaging, adding friends, location maps, and on and on and on. It is very comprehensive and fulfils the need to network underwater participants.
