When app.net finally went away Dalton and Berg open sourced a fair bit of the underlying technology. Two small social networks were born for people that did not want to give up the communities they had found on app.net. PNut.io uses the same backbone that app.net did. I’m not sure about the underlying software that 10centuries.org uses. Both of them feature microblogging but also offer other features. 10centuries also allows regular blogging and pnut has private messages as well as #mondaynightdanceparty. Every monday 9:30 PM EST people log into mndp.tv and request videos. We all watch them and comment. It’s a lot of fun. Not being open to every rando on the internet does lead to a better experience.
