Gladkin friends-test. Last updated November 2026.
What this is
Gladkin is a small, non-commercial test run by John Shepard for groups of friends who want to meet in person more often. It is not a business, there are no fees, and it can change or stop at any time.
Who can use it
You must be 18 or older, and you join by invitation from someone in your group.
Using it kindly
Use Gladkin only to plan get-togethers with people you know. Don't misuse the service, impersonate anyone, or enter other people's private details.
No guarantees
Gladkin is provided as is. We don't promise uptime, that dates or venues will be right, or that every message arrives. Please double-check plans with your group. To the extent the law allows, John Shepard isn't liable for anything arising from using the test, including a missed dinner.
