Diaspora, the project started by team of students which is considered as Facebook alternative to sort out all the privacy related issues is here. The Diaspora Team has released their initial source code in September, to let the world give a try to see how the facebook alternative will resemble. Diaspora has moved from Pre-Alpha stage to Alpha stage and now Invite based signup is allowed. You have to make a request for an diaspora invite by entering your email address.
The logo is pretty simple with the description as its motive to experience the privacy ensured social networking. “Share what you want, with whom you want.” Once its become famous, diaspora may face privacy issues, banning in several countries and so on. In maximum case, the govt wont let the user data shared to be kept totally secret. Without sniffing the data that travels in and out of the country may award banning as the final solution by the govt.
How to Install Diaspora ?
As you know Diaspora is hosted in Github, now you can download and experiment the alpha stage Diaspora in your own web server. The complete guide to install and experience the diaspora link is added.
The Diaspora Team do have an Diaspora IRC Channel (#diaspora) to support you during Installation when you end up in Errors or any Trouble.
We are in the process of experimenting the alpha version and soon will come up with a little more detailed review about it. Dont forget to add your short review in our comment once you have experimented it. Thanks for reading.
said Hello!
Will this diaspora beats facebook ?
It’s really hard to beat Facebook at this point. 🙂 But anybody can try..
Waiting for your detailed review.. and how about its prospect?
But I think no one cannot beat facebook. Because the social nedwork facebook could gain the people’s heart.
It is hard to beat facebook and just like the others I am waiting for further reviews
Wow, Facebook killer?! Haha… anyway, can’t wait to see your review on Diaspora.
Thanks for sharing this. I think i read somewhere about this. Will check this out.
it’ll be tough to beat facebook but if it initiates with a bang then it has future ahead
There would be no alternative for Facebook,
Already requested… but still i didnt receive invitation 🙂 waiting for that…
well cant say about diaspora right now we’ll see in long run how it does. but in my opinion i don’t think that if can beat facebook… well best wishes…
No invite still !! lets see 🙂
Folkdirect, is making waves in the social networking ocean too – I’ve been on there for 6months after defecting from Facebook finally. All my friends are there too. EVerything is hosted in-house so no third-parties get your info nor are any companies able to set-up apps to scam you. It’s a safe place to hang out.
Hello,
Diaspora looks like a great alternative to Facebook. Also, Mark Zuckerberg’s idea – Facebook will still be the best social network in the World for a considerable amount of time. Let’s face it.. Mark Zuckerberg is filthy rich, he cannot fall down with his kind of money, he can invest and reinvest daily in Facebook’s development and it’s kind of hard to compete over someone like Mark Zuckerberg, he is famous and rich and has innovative ideas – that’s just a mortal combination. Competitors will be a lot, but ones who will be better than M.Z., rarely. Although, thank you very much for sharing this article, I will try out Diaspora too, maybe it will turn out to be the next best social network.
Best regards,
Maria
Waiting for the invitation god know how long will it take… Then only anyone can say anything about it…
Very interesting, facebook killer? But I think ,it’s too hard to beat facebook……………….anyway let’s see ……………..
Will be good if we get an alternative for FB. Will get something new but I hardly think anything can beat FB in the coming time. It’s just growing and growing.
Will it be a success like Fb is real question to be asked? Anyways I have applied for an invite. Eager to check what it is…
This is really kewl 🙂
It’s not cool as you have changed default commenting system.
Disqus is not the part of your page and it is working as an inline frame which is not good for SEO.
