?makers Congratulations on the launch! Love the whole discussion towards Metaverse! Would love to know what are the updates since the original launch in 2020 (https://www.producthunt.com/post...).

@adityavsc The main difference is that a year ago we only had an MVP which was one room where you could meet and speak. Now, it’s a beta version of a social network, where you can find events to attend and meet interesting people. We’ve added features that our early users asked for: clubs and a desktop version as well.
Kristina Kalmykova
@adityavsc thanks fo congratulations and so good question! Hope you will have time to join and check the difference 🙂

I love this trend of services that let you move around in virtual worlds/rooms and talk with others. Reminds me of the good old times of WeeWorld, IMVU etc. It’s kinda off though that it’s November 1st and the landing page is pushing me to join an event that takes place on… October 29 :)

I have this small question mark that constantly pops up on my head when I see a product similar to this - Are all these online meeting apps going to destroy the perfume industry or what? Just kidding, great launch people and I loved what you did there!
Fedor Sokolov
@helvacilar ahaha, Arda - maybe we should add a status bar with a description of the IRL smell so we can at least imagine)) Seriously are the products that can transfer smell already? we should collaborate with them
Igor Monakhov
Hi Everyone! I’m Igor Monakhov, founder and CEO of Connect.Club. I was raised in a small city where it was hard to meet like-minded, global-thinking people for the projects and interests I was into. The Metaverse solves this by connecting like-minded people regardless of space or time. Informed by my passion to connect and network with interesting people, doers, entrepreneurs and innovators, I created Connect.Club, a new social network in the Metaverse. Our app is now live in the Metaverse where it’s connecting people in virtual rooms designed for positive emotional engagement. We’ve also created educational, business and entertainment events to help people break the ice. In short, our app makes it easy to find like-minded partners as well as build communities for your projects and ideas. We are thrilled to announce our virtual festival for entrepreneurs, artists, and innovators to gather together to better understand how to collaborate more effectively around building the products for the future. On the 29th of October, we will meet the creators of innovative products in our metaverse world. Register now and meet founders, participate in discussions and tell your own story. Also we prepared exclusive for Product Hunt a virtual art expo about the history of the Metaverse. We welcome you to our expo to learn about the Metaverse and meet engaging, interesting people. Join our club to see us build this product in real time. Participate in all our meetings, give us feedback, and be part of building the Metaverse! Connect on a new social network in the Metaverse that fosters human connection and genuine communication. Club link: https://app.cnnct.club/a/key_liv...

@igor_monakhov so glad you're building it, I have already met really cool like-minded people at Connect Club and I see the potential it has inside to change the way people communicate for better! Good luck with the launch!

@igor_monakhov Congratulations on the launch and becoming #1 Product of the day! Too bad I missed the launch day. But I am glad to see you did great! I got familiar with Connect.Club a week ago and downloaded it, but I didn't have an invite. How can I get an invite to start participating in meetings? :)
John Faig
@igor_monakhov Signed up and waiting for the invitation code. I have lots of thoughts about how to make a great social network that combines elements of LinkedIn, LunchClub and some Slack communities. Reach out if you want to brainstorm.

Amazing app! I feel how people talk near with me almost physically because of interesting interactive and real-time movement. Video is here, audio is here, reactions is here, sharing your screen/video/presentation is here, broadcasting rooms is here, networking rooms is here, where you can talk in small groups on the corner in the room and nobody hears what you talk until come to you. I like it! So let's connect together in the Connect.Club ;)
Fedor Sokolov

Andrey Bulezyuk
Oh boy this product/startup name did not age well. Your are now fighting with Mark Z. for this these first four letter 'meta'.
Fedor Sokolov
@andrey_bulezyuk hi! I'm glad we are not called "Meta Club" 😅 I watched the whole Facebook/Meta presentation yesterday, and even though I consider myself an expert in the Metaverse, I must admit that I was blown away. We will be fighting for the free and open Metaverse; this is for sure!
Vasilii Borisov
Great update, @igor_monakhov! 👍 I started using the service from first releases, saw many updates, new features, and how fast Connect.Club team grows. No step back, guys! Great product! 🚀
Igor Monakhov
@yuhenobi thank you for your great support!
Troy Malone
I've participated in an event on Connect.Club and it was amazing how natural the interactions felt. People could get on the stage, ask questions and simply make the event more engaging. Check out some of the events on the app right now. It's a refreshing experience.
Fedor Sokolov
@troy_malone you are an inspiration for us and we are so humbled to hear these words
Alexander Murauski
Exciting product, congrats Igor and the team! Hope to take part in some of those virtual meetings and share experience :)
Ina Liashkevich
I love observing how fast Connect.Club grows! Since I joined in January there’ve been added a lot of great new features. I started to organize my own programs there for English learners and my audience seems to love this app too! Thanks guys for a great opportunity! And congrats with the PH launch! Good luck! 👏
Fedor Sokolov
@inna_leshkevich you are such an amazing contribution to our ecosystem! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
Khrystsina Trusava
Looks like a better version of Clubhouse! Love the concept of making virtual meetings with like-minded people more real and more engaging
Anatoly Ryzhakov
Hello there! Looks interesting and promising, for our digital era. What interesting features you planning (or maybe develop it right now) for B2B? For example - virtual office, worker statuses for user and etc.
Fedor Sokolov
@anatoly_ryzhakov great question, Anatoly! We have decided to make Connect Club B2C first, even though it seems more challenging. In a way, it would be easier to work with groups of people organized by shared workplace than with people that we need to organize around shared interests. But this is what we believe the world needs now - new genuine human connections. However, B2B is super interesting for us as well – we are looking into making customized and branded spaces tailored to specific occasions, corporate events, collaborations with brands, tools to make stand-up meetings and presentations more effective, and more... In fact, we ourselves are hosting all our company's meetings in Connect Club, open for the audience to attend) A wild experiment! Come see yourself 🚀
Evgeny Marchenkov
Guys, your product is awesome. I'd say it is something between LinkedIn and ClubHouse. I've participated in a few events and really enjoyed being a speaker and a listener. Keep pushing, ConnectClub!
Mary  Lazarchuk
@evgeny_marchenkov thank you so much! You have to participate more! Today we have wonderful festival about the Metaverse and Products of the Future! See you!)
