  I personally think there should be a protocol that would turn everything into one big social network where you could sign up on any server and then OAuth to other servers. We are building it: http://platform.qbix.com http://platform.qbix.com (Better than Diaspora* :)

      Happens when you're passionate about what you're building and few others have spent as many man hours

    Did you consider an open-source or dual-licensing business model? See http://www.1060research.com/products/ http://www.1060research.com/products/ for an example.

        The FAQ's explain when a license is needed: http://www.1060research.com/resources/#open http://www.1060research.com/resources/#open Essentially, if the code that uses the framework is open-source, then the framework can be used with a public license at no charge. If the code that users the framework is proprietary, then the framework has a license fee.
