Activator: Pimp my buddy list
Neal’s Web 2.0 video is up on YDN now. This is his YOS talk and includes a sneak peek of my new project, Activator, at about 30:20 into the video.
True to it’s name, Activator is here to activate your social graph. It’s meant to help out with “cold starting” social networks. Many times when you first arrive at a social network, you have no friends and no clear means of how to find your existing friends. Activator’s charter is to find those people for you and surface them so you can quickly and easily add them. I’m still trying to figure out what’s the best way to write openly about Activator without getting myself into trouble. For now, check out Neal’s video and you’ll see a quick screenshot of what Activator may look like when released.
