Diaspora needs to just launch. They are repeating the same mistake Google Wave made. If it's invitation only, your friends are not on it, so there's no reason to use it.
I give it 0.01% chance of succeeding if keep things the way they are.
Seriously, a year of fucking development? Facebook launched after a few hours.
- michaelchisari 15y agoSeriously, a year of fucking development? Facebook launched after a few hours. It amazes me the kinds of expectations people have. I mean, Diaspora is partly to blame with making huge promises and feeding the hype machine, but that can only be a small fraction of the problem, the ideas people have about what's possible in this problem domain is really off the charts. Even hackers and geeks, who really should know better. A year is nothing compared to the scope of what they're trying to solve. Appleseed, Elgg, OneSocialWeb, etc. have all been in development for years.
