  Wow, reading through that, and looking at Utropic, it's amazing how similar our projects were. We had many of the same aims, ambitions, problems, and results. I think your analysis of the situation (No Co-Founder, Not fully invested) was true for both of us, but I also, particularly after reading your ioFeed post.. We're creating technical solutions to problems. That's not enough. Saying "I can improve on Facebook" doesn't take into account the huge network effect, and it doesn't solve the problem of getting people onto your site. It's a good reminder that the tech isn't enough by itself.
