[wlug] Diaspora* Announces It Is Now a "Community Project"

"Decentralised social network startup Diaspora* announced on their blog today that they will become a 'community project' with the intention of making it an entirely community-driven, community-run project. Whether this is a sign of the project losing impetus, or whether this will provide the push needed to challenge commercially run social networks, remains to be seen." -- source: http://news.slashdot.org/story/12/08/28/0117226/diaspora-announces-it-is-now...
