Notifications
Keep your users engaged through a robust notification system that provides e-mail, RSS, and on-site updates whenever user-selected relevant events occur.

Extensibility
SocialSpring sites are built using modular 'coils'—small vertical slices of code that perform specific functions. You can customize your SocialSpring implementation by adding on standard coils or getting new ones custom-made.
