I think I am pretty good at guesstimating the chances of success of "digital products and services", whether for profit or non profit, and the minute I heard about diaspora I predicted it as a future failure and when I say failure I mean that it will not become a viable alternative to Facebook that is used by a decent amount of people. It might turn out to be a success of a different kind. What kind? I don't know but they certainly surprised me with the amount of money they managed to raise in such a short time with nothing more than a state of principals.
