Revisiting Distributed Social Networking
I blogged about distributed social networking quite a few times in 2007 but definitely not enough. Recently Stii got the ball rolling again with his post Open Social, Facebook. They all suck..
OpenSocial is a very good step forwards, but personally I feel that it is far too basic and does not live up to many's expectations. Yes, I realise it's only the start of the project, but we honestly can't wait forever.
DataPortability.org, yet another disappointment. Dispite having some major players involved, when will they progress further than an outline in their technical spec? The DiSo project, very cool but again we need to progress further than just OpenID and hCard.
I have some basic stuff that I designed a while back but my whole approach has been quite different.
I don't really have much time at the moment so I don't know when I can get all my thoughts down on "paper" so to speak but the sooner the better. I think the time is really ripe for actual implementations right now that actually work! :)
