ILCU.com – a Social Network for Activities
ILCU (pronounced “I’ll see you”) is a new activities-based social network. Members post events and activities they’re having, or planning to attend – a party, a movie, a lecture, you name it – and anyone can browse through the listings of activities and pick the ones he wants to attend.
