NoseRub.com - Decentralising Social Networks

NoseRub is a decentralized social network. Your typical social network concentrates around a particular subject, say work, school, or videos.

It's typically exclusive in the sense that you've got friends and contacts whose info stays within the networkâ€”you can't transfer them between spaces unless all your contacts have joined the same networks as you, which is unlikely. So it becomes a job in itself to keep track of your friends' activities and to keep rebuilding your networks for each site. NoseRub is more flexibleâ€”their network is defined only by some basic features such as media, links and micropublishing. You can add all your contacts to NoseRub and aggregate your networks in one space. Use any RSS feed as a source to add to your NoseRub account; currently the site supports flickr, Twitter, Pownce, Last.fm and others. Once someone adds you as a contact they'll receive updates on anything you do.

"Social networks are great: you can stay in touch with friends all across the world and find new ones based on your interests. But often, social networks serve a single purpose or interest.
This is not a problem by itself, but when you want to keep track of all your contacts in all this social networks, this is a lot of work for you to update your contacts list in all the social networks you are in.
NoseRub only defines the social network and some basic content types like media, links, micropublishing and text. You can now add all your contacts to a NoseRub network and aggregate several social networks into just one".

The critical social demographic is known for not sticking around, at least in terms of networking. They are not loyal to solely one network. New networks pop up and they join with ease. NoseRub allows users to aggregate their contacts and networks, freeing up time and attention. Users won't have to spend hours trying to keep track of friends and building up networks.
