The idea implicit in this notion is centralization of information which is in contradistinction to the multitiered and multifaceted levels and dimensions of life. The Alchemical Axiom is "As Above...So Below" which is simply mirroring the principles and laws of nature. The polarization of ideas can only stultify the evolutionary development of society. So rather than settling for a single central database service (consider the SWOT carefully on a business idea like this, particularly the area of Threats) ....I would recommend and prescribe to a plural of these systems....social database serviceS. Just follow a thought to its logical conclusion before you recommend it. The threat is too great...dictatorships, imperialism, etc are reflections of your proposed model. Makes sense?

Srsly, who was doing the page aliasing on Yoono's site? I think I'll pass on this product. People aren't putting enough thought into things like link rot, and they're not even launched yet. Oh wait. there's another link near the one that doesn't work, and it goes to a product called 'Flock'? I think I'll try that one out.

I'm usually not a fan of browsing with an open sidebar so I really appreciate the ability to pop the widgets out of the dock. This is clearly a very early beta release but there's a lot of potential here. It took a while to get my invite but I must say Yoono is very slick.
