DIASPORA* ALPHA
This site may list the some pods--but not all: http://podupti.me/
And here is a static list of pods: https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/wiki/Community-supported-pods by Oct 23
Diaspora is run by using pods. This pod is a rare example of a pod run Diaspora--the makers of Diaspora. You can run your own pod also--and this is the normal way of using this system. The other usual way of using Diaspora is to join someone else’s pod. Pods produce a degree of privacy as the pod-networks are independent of each other and currently do not necessarily show up on search engine results. Anyone seems to be able to join your pod, but they have to find it first. Diaspora looks like it has also got a invite only system so this would mean that you could create a pod for your family and friends only for example. Diaspora might also be good for running a club--such as a sport, gamer or RPG club for example. With Diaspora, I would have a private pod for the club and a public pod as a marketing tool to promote the club. by Oct 22
