Diaspora

Diaspora is a project that aims high: 4 Guys want to establish a super social network! The idea is to let people connect securely and independently through a single interface, making the need for multiple logins at different web services like twitter, facebook or flickr obsolete.

They ask for financial support and promise to release everything under the aGPL - sounds great!

I'm very curious how they plan to face the technical hurdles involved in this undertaking, and especially how much of existing protocols will be implemented (like XMPP or OpenMicroBlogging...)

Very interesting.
