Zorpia.com is the largest social network you’ve never heard of. Zorpia has a large international community; its features include profile customization, a fair selection of networking features and an incredibly detailed search. On the whole, Zorpia is your typical social network.

Zorpia has an impressive music section featuring popular artists like Ashlee Simpson, Vanessa Hudgens, Alanis Morissette and more. You can also go to the artist’s profile page, leave messages or join their friend list. The Video section consists of a variety of videos uploaded by users. Some videos are originals submitted directly by users, but we found the vast majority of videos were taken from YouTube.

The groups section includes about 11 categories of topic with groups created by users. Although we found the group options to be broad and eclectic they mostly felt like forums. Most just seemed like a threat of comments prompted by one question or random topic of conversation. But they are interesting nonetheless.

You can purchase a Royal Membership for extra networking options such as an ad–free profile, extra profile design features and unlimited messaging. The membership costs $8.95 for 3 months, $13.95 for 6 months and $17.95 for 12 months.

Zorpia has a number of security features that allow you to keep your profile and personal information private. You can restrict who sees your profile and who sends you messages. You can restrict it to friends only or Zorpians in your Country. You can also select who views your photo albums, journals, video collections and more.

For testing purposes we left our profile public and placed very few restrictions to help determine the quality of the social network site. We were a little unnerved at the number of unsolicited messages we received from random strangers. It’s understandable to get a few messages here and there from people you don’t know, just about every day we got at least one or two messages or instant message prompts from a stranger looking to chat or exchange email addresses. Meeting new people occasionally can be fun and interesting, but eventually it just became creepy.
