Does a US competitor need to be FB? I would like to see a new more privacy focused social experience prop up. It doesn’t need to be a network per se, but it can be. How do we create a fertile bed for development of new connected experiences? Do we already have it? I am wary of venture capital culture that requires outsized gains. Isn’t there a slow stock market concept now?


Is there honestly a market for it? I bet it's too expensive to run it without ads, and I don't think people would pay for social media.

I would love a system as good as FB actually is (except their site is quite heavy on a decent Laptop) which doesn't eat my data.
