What’s new with Decentralised Social Networking

Four Nerds and a Cry to Arms Against Facebook
Diaspora is what they call it. Four college geeky students thought of developing a decentralised social network which will not be centralised to any business giant like Facebook. They say “We talk to our friends directly, then why we have to submit our feeds to a centralised server and then wait for them to distribute it to our friends?”
The Diaspora team has already raised $23,676 for the development of Diaspora over a span of 2-3 month.
