# Meet the Startup: Dialing up Celly

For a social application to be truly social, it has to be accessible to all kinds of folks—not just owners of the latest smart phone. That’s what makes [Celly](http://cel.ly/ "Celly") shine. With a low barrier to entry and any number of ways to use the service, this Portland startup has managed to make building small curated social networks drop dead simple.
