Huminity to Overtake Friendster?

from the dept.
Open Source Anonymous Coward writes "Here's a story published in Globes Arena about a garage start-up called Huminity that is positioned to overtake Friendster in what Business 2.0 describes as the technology of the year. The software itself is a combination of a chat-software and a social networking software, which is a pretty different approach to the web-based social networking sites that flooded the Internet lately. The facinating part is that is was built by 2 friends with no funding that based everything on cheap and effective open-source software, and through viral growth and word of mouth built a network of more than 400,000 people."

    Does anyone remember sixdegrees.com (now defunct)? This did the same thing back in '98-'00. I've always wished Friendster had that technology, but it doesn't. Will have to check out this new product. Now, if you could tie that in with nullsoft's WASTE program, you'd really have something! Just have it work w/ the closest 50 matches, automatically.
