Facebook Competitor Diaspora Revealed

jamie writes "A post has just gone up on Diaspora's blog revealing what the project actually looks like for the first time. While it's not yet ready to be released to the public, the open-source social networking project is giving the world a glimpse of what it looks like today and also releasing the project code, as promised. At first glance, this preview version of Diaspora looks sparse, but clean. Oddly enough, with its big pictures and stream, it doesn't look unlike Apple's new Ping music social network mixed with yes, Facebook."

Seriously. That's a huge mistake., Scalability should be built into the core of it. Its okay if its just the interface, but the core of the app should be written in Scala, or Go. One can only hope that this is just a prototype that they will rewrite with a more solid base.
