Microsoft's Social Network Unveiled: Socl
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Wed 16th Nov 2011 00:11 UTC
Microsoft OSNews writing about social networks? Yes, it happens, and today is one of those days. We all know Facebook is king here, with a massive userbase and a seemingly unbreakable hold over the market, with Twitter covering the more public side of social networking. Google does some stuff in a fringe somewhere with something called Google+ which tries to combine Facebook and Twitter, but it's effectively a ghost town with a confusing interface. So, if you're Microsoft, what are you going to do? Well, build your own social network, of course!

But noise is life.

Indulge my inner Elitist Pig for a moment. Noise may be a certain form of life. It doesn't mean I care much for its existence.

And, not to rain on elitist parades of r_a_trip and like-minded (hm, w8, that's exactly what I want to do ;p ) or anything, but - ultimately we very much care about this aspect of our life.

After all, our existence will be randomized in a very short amount of time ;) (few decades ...well, with finishing touches maybe centuries or millennia away if you try hard; still, a blink of an eye, in geological time scales)
