Personal Profile
This profile can only be seen by your personal network. On your personal profile you’ll be able to connect your Twitter and Facebook account(s). You can manage all of your updates for each site as well as view the timelines for each one in their own separate tab. Having a private personal profile gives you the freedom of sharing anything you like without having to worry about it ruining your professional image. Once you’re ready to get professional, you can switch to your business profile in a snap.
Business Profile
Likewise, your business profile can only be seen by your business network. For this profile, you can connect your LinkedIn and Twitter account(s). Just like the personal profile, you’ll be able to manage your updates and view your timelines. You can share business photos and videos and switch to your personal profile at anytime.
Required Information
To setup both profiles you’ll be asked for: profile name (keep in mind this is a nickname and not your actual name), birthday, biography, country and photo. Having the two separated allows you to enter a fun biography and use a fun picture on your personal profile, while showing your professional side on the other.
Dashaboard
This is where you can access all of your timeline, post status updates, search for friends and business connections, post videos and images, view your messages, join communities (coming soon) and add widgets (coming soon). When posting updates, you’ll have the option to add images, links, a location and mentions with the click of a button.
Viewing Timelines
The actions you can perform on the Twitter timeline are: repost, favorite, reply, translate. The items you can view are: mentions, favorites, all updates, combined timelines. There is also a refresh button and search button for filtering by keyword(s).
The actions you can perform on Facebook and LinkedIn are: repost, like, comment, translate. The items you can view are: mentions, all updates, combined timelines. Likewise there is a refresh button and search button for filtering by keyword.
Other Features
On the sidebar you can view your number of friends, updates, messages as well as upcoming birthdays. There is also a link here to change your avatar.
Searching for friends is easy with the search bar and you can even organize your friends and connections with labels.
The messages area is where you can create new messages as well as view your inbox, outbox and trash. Keep in mind that this is for Whoopaa messages only; Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn messages are not displayed here. You can also create folders for organizing your messages.
Privacy Options
When it comes to privacy, Whoopaa has that covered as well. When editing your profile, you can set privacy options for your country, city and bio. You can choose to make these items viewable to friends, friends of friends or everyone. The same goes for your contact information. Unfortunately, there isn’t an option to make this information viewable only to you so if you want something totally private, you shouldn’t add it at all.
Lastly, Whoopaa lets you customize the types of notifications that you want to receive by email and like Facebook, they even have a separate page for you to view all of your notifications on the site.
With all of that in mind:
How do you feel about having to keep up with not one, but two more profiles?
Do you like Whoopaa concept or do you prefer a single profile?
