Open source social networking alternatives have no shortage of passion and enthusiasm. There is an overwhelming interest in building open alternatives to the walled gardens we currently inhabit, and a strong belief in the necessity and superiority of freedom and decentralization over corporate, centralized control. And yet a viable alternative has not emerged. While the world holds their breath for a challenger, most of the world still socializes on a closed off section of the internet which sees it's users as products, not as digital citizens worthy of a basic respect. http://opensource.appleseedproject.org/
