The Magic Network aims to provide its users with a wide range of features that allow them to easily share information, discuss the latest trends, interact with one another, and promote themselves and their magic! Some of the many features of The Magic Network include:
1. The ability to search for other members based on various criteria such as city, country, style of magic and type of venue.
2. A personal profile with the following features:
- A profile "slate" where other members can leave messages, subject to your privacy settings.
- Any personal or business info you want to share with the community, with full privacy control.
- The ability to stream your Twitter feed.
- The ability to stream YouTube and Google videos.
- The ability to stream any RSS feeds.
- The ability to sell "Instant Download" files, such as tutorial videos and pdf e-books, connecting directly to your personal PayPal account.
3. A Photo Gallery where users can upload photos, tag themselves in photos and rate/comment on photos.
4. An Event List/Calendar, to which users can add and publicize their events. All events are listed in the site Event Calendar and on the site's "Upcoming Events" on the homepage.
5. A full-featured forum to discuss any topic in magic or mentalism. The user's forum profile is linked with the user's profile page.
6. Groups and the ability to create groups that are invitation-only, open, or approval only. Groups have access to their own, private, group-discussion forums that only group members can see. This can be useful, for example, if you sell a product and would like to start a group that is only open to members that have purchased the product. You can discuss the product in the group forums without any other users being able to see the discussions.
7. A full featured private messaging system.
8. A "friends" system that allows you to add friends and control your privacy such that only friends can see certain information on your profile, if you wish.
9. A "Links" directory that you can add your own links to if you are a registered member.
10. A Shoutbox, where you can send shoutouts that are visible in the Shoutbox to all logged in viewers.
11. Classified Ads - for you to post jobs or magic items for sale.
12. Live Chat and Chatrooms - through the private chat bar, which allows you to chat one-on-one and create your own chat rooms.
13. A Video Gallery to stream and show off all your videos!
14. A fully featured community blog tool, that allows you to write your own blog posts with text, images and videos. Your blog posts have their own RSS feed that is compatible with feedburner, and they will be displayed in your profile and on The Magic Network's home page!
15. A cool tweetboard that lets you post to Twitter and engage with other members of the Magic Network in Twitter conversations, right from any page on The Magic Network.
16. Plus much much more!
