Inscribing one's own skin with images and words have became popular these past couple of decades, thanks to celebrities who use tattoos as mediums to signify people or things that make most dramatic impressions to them. Chris Brown, David Beckham, Angelina Jolie, and Johnny Depp are just some of the well-known and well-respected celebrities, artists, socialites, and philantrophists who are also known for their hobby of getting tattoed for certain important events or people in their life.
The history of tattoos can be traced back to ancient civilizations and indigenous people who use indelible ink to modify their skin with certain meanings or religious purposes. Maori people in New Zealand, Ainu people in Japan, Berbers in North Africa, and other tribes in the Polynesian and Borneo are just some of the indigenous people who have been applying tattoos as parts of their culture. In the Eurasian, tattooing practice has been around for more than two thousand years, probably as a way to heal oneself from illness as well as cultural and religious practices.
Today, with the invention of modern tattoo materials and techniques, people are able to print difficult patterns or images that were impossible in the past. From the image of a cherry tree in the spring, to the Notebook quote and simple indigenous patterns, tattoos become a way to express oneself using the skin as the medium. For those who have tattoos, it is often difficult to find people who share the same passions or interests.
As tattoos become a way to show one's personal interest, opinion, or thoughts, it is challenging to find someone who shares the same interests. To solve this problem, there is an online tattoo social network tattooset.com where tattoo enthusiasts are able to meet others who share the same passion and interests in tattoos. If you have a tattoo of quotes about life, you can take photos of your tattoo, add tags, tell viewers about the color of your tattoo, and share the photos online. You can share your tattoo photos online to other social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, and many more.
It would be even more great if one can comment on their friend's tattoo photos, so it is like the Youtube-comment version, where user can delete the most unappropriate comments and keep the ones that are okay. This way, tattoo enthusiasts can share their experience, skills, and ask others about what color they use or what ink they use for a particular tattoo. Overall, tattooset.com is a great new social network site that is entirely unique with niche group as the main target.
