Introducing a New Online Community of Movers and Shakers: Become a Part of the Action with Grind.com

SANTA MONICA, Calif., May 17 /PRNewswire/ -- What's YOUR grind? That's the rallying cry directing dynamic people from all over the world to Grind.com, a new social networking site geared to vibrant urban professionals who work hard, play hard, and are always pushing to get ahead.  

Founded in 2010 by Eric Walden, a California data professional, Grind.com is a real-time information network powered by global achievers. "I like the image that comes to mind with the word grind," said Walden. "Like gears grinding in an automobile to propel the vehicle forward, being on grind means to always be hustling, or otherwise engaged in money-making activities." Grind offers a terrific social networking opportunity, giving users a new avenue to make connections with people who share similar interests and goals.

Available to users free of charge after completing a simple sign-in process, Grind.com lets you share your daily grind with like-minded people in real time. Just type in what you are doing at the moment, then press "Shout" and your grind is broadcast out into cyberspace. Users can link to other users directly, share their location, and add a photo or link, a clickable tag or widget to their profile.  

Subscribers don't need to worry about security or privacy with Grind.com. Everything is subscription-based - with only approved users allowed to view shout outs, and vice versa. Grind "friends" are those users that are subscribed mutually. "Grind.com keeps profiles and search options private enough that the only people that can find you are the ones actually looking for users in their neighborhood networks," said Walden. "Even with a completely public profile, Grind users won't be bothered with unsolicited comments or messages."

Beyond posting from home or office, Grind.com is designed to go wherever you go. Created to support mobile platforms including Java, Blackberry and iPhone, Grind.com allows you to stay in touch and up to speed while on the go. The mobile version allows users to:

• Browse through statuses and attachments
• Share photos taken with the phone's camera (not supported on some phones)
• Search through members and statuses
• Link to Twitter
• Link to Facebook
• Find places of interest around you

"We're all busy people and the one thing we don't want to do is waste time - on the wrong people, places or activities," said Walden. "With Grind.com, we start out already knowing that the people we connect with are the right kind of people. From there, anything can happen."
