From what I’ve gathered so far, the company is building a ‘new type of social network’ that lives on your smartphone and the cloud and can be accessed from your desktop browser, rather than the other way around (e.g. what Facebook does). Basically, it sounds like just.me wants to turn your phone into the post-PC centerpiece of your social graph, and not just a tool to gain access to it.

- prawn 15y agoThanks - had seen some of that. No real hint in the name that this could be about private life-tracking? Wracking my brain trying to work out what new take on social someone could be doing at this point to line up $2-3m. Especially with the name "just.me"...
