]]> StudentBOX.com is developing impressively since its recent launch as an exclusive social network for students, covering all aspects of student life. With new members joining every day and the range of services steadily improving we thought we'd take this opportunity to share some of the great features studentBOX currently offers, and what you can expect for the future...

Events - StudentBOX aims to offer the most comprehensive resource on events for students across the country. From foam parties to ale tastings, and everything in between, StudentBOX is the quickest way to check your options for nights out and great social events.

Photos - After all those nights out and parties it's nice to share the memories with all you friends, which is why StudentBOX allows you to upload unlimited photos and videos to your profile.

Full user profiles - Enjoy creating your own unique user profile with all the range of options you have come to expect from a top-class social network, including profile images, contact details, as much or as little personal info as you like.

The best thing about studentBOX is that it is a specialised network catering exclusively for students, meaning every service is geared towards the needs of the student user. Joining the network is, of course, free - and the best thing is that, through the promotions and special offers listed on 'the BOX', users can discover great deals for the student budget.

The man behind studentBOX is Carl Pihl, an internet entrepreneur who recently took part in BBC 3's hit tv show 'The Last Millionaire'.  The show has  now ended its first season, but you can watch the entire run and learn more about Carl's passion for the studentBOX project at the BBC 3 homepage.

StudentBOX has been built by EtonDigital on the symfony framework and is evolving all the time. Look out for future features such as a jobs board, university-specific sub groups and event ticket sales and special offers. We'll keep posted; but in the meanwhile why not 'get in the Box' and check it out for yourself!

]]> One of EtonDigital's newest clients and StudentBox founder, Carl Pihl, is currently appearing in the hit BBC Three series 'The Last Millionaire'. Carl is one of twelve entrepreneurs taking part in the show, which sees them test their wits and business acumen in a range of cities worldwide each week. The series has only recently started so you can still easily catch up with the action, just as the competition is really hotting up!

Carl is so far doing very well on the show, he was runner up in the first episode (each episode sees two millionaire contestants leave). Fluent in three languages and with a successful background in a range of business sectors by the time he left university, Carl is certainly a strong contender to do very well in the show - catch him in action on BBC Three at 9pm on Wednesdays, or visit the BBC website to watch online with iPlayer.
