What is Nhv.Org?
Designed as an alternative to Facebook in 2010, Nhv.org is your classic example of a content management system, based in Google Blogger, with a focus on local activity.
Recently the front end has been revamped to include Twitter Bootstrap technology so that the homepage works whether on a desktop or mobile. The home screen, featuring options for whether you're on the go or at home, is rhetorical. It's set up that way to remind you that a different desktop experience awaits you at home, should you choose to get more involved.

History
Nhv.Org was originally designed in 2010 when it was noticed that many people were using the tag #NHV. This was in order to mention "New Haven" online, and was part of a national trend of using the customary abbreviations of airport or train codes to mention a city within the confinement of Twitter's 140-character limit. New Haven's tag became #NHV and everyone from Yale to the City of New Haven's official accounts have used #NHV as a way of sharing information to a locally interested audience.
