In the era where we move more and more of our online activity into walled gardens it's refreshing to see something taking an explicitly open approach getting some momentum and good publicity.

Isn't that what the promise of open Internet was supposed to be all about?

It's also been a while since something new in this space happened, since Google+ fiasco.

It does have some interesting features and potential so it might be interesting to see how it grows
