[JMcEntegart]

The tech world might be busy talking about Facebook and its IPO but that's not the only social networking action that went down this past weekend. Microsoft also opened up So.cl to all interested parties.

[commandersozo]

There's some girl on girl action in the screenshot. Deliberate, Ms. McEntegart?

Ontopic: I wish Microsoft would stop putting money and time into market niches already conquered by their competitors.

Well, if that's the case, then we wouldn't have the Xbox today. Sony owned the console market in 1999 with the PlayStation.

I have no problem with private companies dumping money into experimental projects. The market will punish them...or reward them if the project is successful. That's how we get innovations.

A social network design for learning. I would love that rather than the filth on twitter and facebook people post. I rather hear interesting things then who got drunk and laid.

agree wish bing wasnt the only search option as sometimes the results are not the best but the idea is brilliant for students and people who are key researchers

 

[jhansonxi]

"As students work together, they often search for the same items, and discover new shared interests by sharing links,"

also pr0n, answers to tests, and malware. Great learning potential indeed.

 

[juxtaposer]

The automatic sharing seems problematic for developing intellectual property, but it would make it easy to learn about popular topics.

Looks like they have a waiting list going.

 

[leongrado]

Haha I wonder what the most visited sites for guys will be 😛.

 

[Judguh]

Am I the only one here who didn't know that Microsoft had this "Socl" site until an article like this was posted? :|

you want a social network that i would use.

first let me make my own page, give me a template to base it off of if i want, or let me code the full html if i dont.

second, if my page causes eye cancer revert it, punish morons for ruining your service.

third. expand on things like google hangout, its a great idea, but not well implemented. let us create a forum or group pages, and in those pages, people we trust can join in on a group chat. think of this like a meeting place, people come and go, not something you set up and everyone has to be there right now or not at all.

fourth, give us freedom, dont make changes to design, and don't be stupid, facebook works for a reason, don't shy away from it just because, innovate and make it better.

Stupid Online Citizen Library?

yet it doesn`t bother you that google even knows at what you fap in your "sexy time"

People are stupid sometimes, you know..

 

[okibrian]

So.cl experiments with this concept by automatically sharing links as you search.

That is a very very bad idea.

 

[Nisdec]

Yuck!

 

[ivan-kunchev]

Damn.. That picture with the girls is actually from my country (Bulgaria). The blonde one is a turbo folk singer (a terrible one). Her stage name is Andrea (you can look it up on YouTube). She makes good softcore porn videos though. But I have no idea what is this doing on their site. 😀

 

[ubercake]

Like any of these sites it's more free marketing info for the man.

...while glossing over the fact that Google has enough information to mess up your life.

Maybe someone will make a plugin to be able to crosspost from the identical-sounding Tumblr.
