Facebook alternative?

[TC95]

I think I remember reading on here awhile ago about some kind of alternative to Facebook that was for liberty minded people. Could someone please direct me to that website?

It's pretty funny - worth the commercial.

I've never used any social networking sites but I know of this:
http://www.jbs.org/jbs-community
says there's close to 9000 members. don't think you have to be a jbs member to sign up

Why not connect with Liberty minded people on Facebook itself?

I also wish I wasn't one of the only libertarians on SodaHead. That site is fun, but it's a wasteland of statist ignorance.

I guess I must have gotten that idea from this thread. It doesn't actually exist yet. lol

There is a few, the main ones from within the movement is Breakthematrix.com and Freeople.com, I've created the Individualist Haven

The individualist haven is more bi-partisan with the intention of creating a place with a libertarian slant for people to debate on the philosophy of individualism.

I previously awhile back created the Liberty Independence Alliance which is more partisan.

That about sums it up.

i highly recomend everyone check out the Diaspora project. Its an awesome grassroots project to essentially decentralize social networking....take out the corporate middleman and let each person be their own social seed...something akin to P2P. The project picked up major grassroots fundraising after facebook's latest controversial updates.

It is a project launched by 4 graduating new york university students, and is being funded through another awesome grassroots website called kickstarter.com. They are great for microfunding good ideas.

Ya'll should check it out!

Glad to see video up. That simple vid has raised over 120k! Diaspora should launch later this summer so we gotta keep following the progress.

interesting it runs on a local webserver with p2p tech, sounds bad ass, especially for people who will support the local install

I hope this takes off
