I just thought of an interesting web-application that can be used by everyone.
Almost everyone who is internet-savvy has heard of blogs, and blogging applications like wordpress.
And a lot of people online currently microblog as well, using twitter or another similar online app.
So, why don't we design an application like twitter that can be uploaded to the internet like wordpress, open source so that everyone can fully customize and mod it, and also able to connect to every other website using that application.
So, instead of using a single social networking site like twitter, facebook, or myspace, people can just install this web application themselves. It'll be kind of like social networking, but on multiple sites, instead of a single site.
And also, there can be many separate websites that will "host" this application, for people who don't have their own host or aren't experienced enough to set up their own site.
I don't think I am really explaining this well, so does anyone have any idea what I am talking about?
