   Props for a great readme as well. I wish more open source included at least a screenshot so you can see what it actually is.

   I think anything that involves lots of other people (e.g. multiplayer games) are a hard nut to crack. Although Social Networks are easier it's easier to fake other users than fake, say, bots.
