What is Eviscape?
- Introduction
- Eviscape is a communication platform: Discover, Publish, Connect, Collaborate.
- Create or join several "Profiles" each with its own network and topics - but all managed through one login.
- Broadcast "Evis" to everyone on Eviscape. (and/or, use Private Profiles. See below.)
- "Evis" can be short messages or full pages containing graphics and meta data.
- "Follow" other Profiles to get automatic updates.
- "Filter" to block certain subjects.
- Use "Private Messages" to communicate directly and privately.
- Use a "Private" Profile if you need a private group or want to control who reads the Evis you publish.
- Example: Use one Profile to keep your friends updated and share concert dates, another to update members of a film crew about a shoot and another to share family pictures with close friends.
- Default Profile, Memberships and Permissions :
- When you register, we create one Profile for you but you can create more using the following link : Create Profile
- As the original member of a Profile, you can invite other members using the Edit->Members link from the control panel. They can then co-manage the Profile depending on the permissions you allocate.
- "Private" Profiles.
- Follow requests to private Profiles must be confirmed before they become active.
- Evis published on private Profiles are not available for public searching or browsing.
- Private Messages
- Private Messages are messages sent directly from one Profile to another.
- They do not flow around the network, so in that sence they may be considered private, but note that all members of a Profile may read Private Messages sent to it.
- Notifications
- Notifications are generated when someone comments on one of your Evis or sends you a Private Message etc.
- They appear on your home page and depending on your member settings they may be collected and emailed to you.
- User interface tips
- You can choose between a Compact and Advanced interface using the little arrow next to the search box.
- You can customise the look of your Profiles. See the Edit link on each Profile.
- Search tips
- By default we do an "or" search which looks for any of the words you enter. We display the highest ranked results first.
- You can also enter a boolean search e.g.: party &!simon &!david
