What @mike and team at @Flipboard are doing with https://surf.social/ is really interesting. I'm checking out their beta and it's intriguing.
It's social media, for sure, but IMHO different and better: it goes far beyond the monotony of the linear feed into far more focused experiences. It's like merging Twitter, RSS Readers, and Google News into something that looks and feel prettier than any of them. And might very well be more useful.
There's a long waiting list but may be worth it.
@j12t @mike @Flipboard
on the wait list. hopeful. when tv started, they basically just filmed radio programs. it always takes a while to figure out the new medium. I think that's where we've been with decentralized social media. decentralized versions of the corporate platforms. but one thing that makes us special is the ability to allow users to pull them all together. the best stuff from anywhere, played in any app we want. one big culturally viral experience we all participate in.
