Diaspora Passing The Hat Again

type="html">

It's been over a year since Diaspora raised over $200,000 towards the creation of an alternative, decentralized social network. It was less than three months later that the first screenshots of their project hit the web, but since then — well, it would be disingenuous to say we haven't heard anything (they sent out alpha invites just last month, for instance), but they sure haven't been making a lot of noise over there.And it seems that although the original goal for their Kickstarter project was a mere $10,000, twenty times that amount still falls short of the money needed to develop and launch a competitor to the biggest site on the internet. So they're asking for more. Not that there's anything wrong with that.]]>
