I think it is obvious by now that the world is not moving over to Google Plus. This service is most likely going to be on the same route as Buzz.

Why support 800 pound gorilla? I am all for supporting under dogs and small but substantive social services.

Thx. Well, one thing is common here that I too have a lot to say on many topics and one common denominator (either Facebook or Twitter or whatever) is not a suitable choice (hence I use different platforms for different topics but I know it

I'm actually not following what Subjot does (can't understand via the text blurb) and I'm not enthusiastic about logging in on any new service via Facebook/Twitter. So I'll wait for now.

I'm a looking for a social network which would let me tweet longer post (don't want to tweet longer via an isolated blog). Google+ does not and I'm already starting to hate Google+ (out of protest for their naming policy).

Could someone help identify why Firefox saves and keeps such a ridiculous number of Cache folders in \\Application Data\...\Profiles\... They're all 0, 1, 2...and then 01, 0A, 0B. I mean, what's the point here?

Not everyone know how to name their photographs. The proper photograph naming scheme is simply the biggest missed opportunity since the dawn of digital cameras. Using the naming scheme of Dates Pictures Taken, along with a word or two of th

I manually sort my photos by Date Pictures Taken into their own folders. I don't see a big deal about this as a separate service.

Give me something that opens my eyes. All I see at the site is: "beautiful goat", "measuring beard", "10 year old hot model". That's a crap as one can get!.

Seems useful.

I don't understand why would you not use Adblock. Perhaps there should be a poll for this question.

Google can instantly solve this problem by providing users the ability to select different avatars/names for different circles.

Before you use a password which is 9,999 in length, make sure the site you're providing this password is even compatible beyond 8 characters. There are password field boxes out there which would fool you by taking your long password until y

The Keepass I remember was too much and too crowded for a simple need of password storing. I then switched to PasswordSafe and realized that it isn't compatible with Linux, so I went to PasswordGorilla. I have tried all types of simple met

Wouldn't that be like controlling how people should comment? Smells quora to me.

Agree.

So basically users are happily swimming in the sea of advertisements with content they don't own or create.themselves. Nice business!

Well, what would Amazon be doing with their 5 gig free? People will be uploading their files, are they going to check if they're all legit? Dropbox could provide audio player for private files.

If Dropbox has picture viewer, why can't it have audio player?

I feel like back in 1999 with this Amazon Cloud Storage/Player. Any case, Amazon is like a giant grocery store which is always selling something. It feel creepy to house my files at their store.

Amazing when HN generate so much comment on services with no About section.

I'd agree. I'm a windows user for many years (XP) with couple of old machines laying around. I have recently tried PeppermintOS, Joli, Lubuntu. I think I have found Peppermint to be better than all of them and I think there is a market gro
