Public Member Registry (white pages)
The Registry is your system white pages / yellow pages - a public list of facts about each user on the system. If one of your goals is to promote networking, Registry is a great starting point for a search. Members can list information about themselves or advertise their products and services. Users scan through full-screen listings of entries, clicking names of interest for longer descriptions. A find-user feature lets members search by name.
