Matmice

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

MatMice is a invite only social networking website aimed at children and teenagers, founded by three sisters in 2000. Since February 2007, the website based itself on free webpages for children, with basic tools and HTML support, and over 1,609,265 members. All webpages created and its web creation tools are planning to be "taken down" in the near future to focus on its social network community.

MatMice has won numerous awards due to its free to use basis aimed primarily at children, and is recognised as a leader in development of user friendly technology easily accessible to children. MatMice also has plans to utilize other languages. [1] [2]

In 2003, the oldest of the MatMice creators, Emily Boyd was awarded the NSW Young Australian of the Year and honoured with the Centenary Medal. This award recognises her as making contributions to Australian society or government. [3] [4]
