Shawn Nelson#DiscussionStarter : If you were to create a #SocialMedia experience. What things would you consider? How would you make it safe and yet open?
Answers can be social, technical, legal, etc…
Not a Developer just a thinker.
Things to consider.
1. #Communities tend to be compartmentalized.
2. People like to belong to more than one.
3. Cost of #Technology
4. What constitutes #Safety and #freedom ?
5. How do we structure it?
6. What #features should it have? Why/why not?
7. What #laws need to be adhered to?
8. How do we scale #governance of the communities we build? Public/Private/Paid
Community:
If I were to make an #app. I’d like to be able to create #feeds based on #Interests. Currently we can search interests and find people with similar interests and interact with them. But because people are multi faceted simply following them can take you off topic. And maybe you don’t want to do that today. So a feed that stays on subject would be useful.
Possible solution: Allow lists to be made based on #tags and not #people

Discussion forums have fallen out of fashion but they were very well suited to following interests while still creating communities.
The ones I was most involved in all had a common interest but also lively discussions on many other topics and everyone just participated in whichever interested them.
Of all the social media I've used, that was my favourite format.
