Assalamualaikum This is another excellent networking tools for students for sharing courseworks/assignments and for lecture-related discussions. Its just recently launched. I had a chance to try it and made some feedbacks to the owners. The owners are getting some involvements from the lecturers in the UK universities for using this service. Some are already in, while many more in the pipeline. Otherwise this is an excellent tools. Please note you will need "academic email address" to register. Although majority members at the moment are from UK universities, you dont have to be a UK student to join. Please pass on to other students.
