Abstract
Social media websites allow people all around the world to find communities and make connections. Many social media sites are for general use and have lots of diverse and thriving communities engaging with content, but this can make it hard to find a particular niche. Some sites solve this issue by focusing on a particular topic, such as GoodReads, a social media site focused on books (“Goodreads”). TheCheeseBoard is a social media web app focused on cheese that, taking after its predecessors, allows users to find a community of cheese lovers and enthusiasts and learn more about cheese all in one centralized location. Users can rate and review cheeses they’ve tried, mark a cheese as ‘want to try’, add cheeses to custom boards, read other users’ reviews, and comment on reviews to start a conversation. TheCheeseBoard builds a community of those who already love cheese and can make learning less intimidating for those just beginning to explore beyond grocery store cheddar and parmesan.
