Schemer: New Social Network by Google

I could swear I got logged in to Schemer via my Gmail (i.e. OAuth) just now without me doing anything but visiting the link for this post. Am I missing something here? That doesn't feel right.

Schemer? That's a horrid name! What is up with google that they can't see what a terrible name it is? Does anyone want to hang out with ANYONE who is "scheming"? Google's own search for that word gives this definition: "Given to or involved in making secret and underhanded plans." And really, in this day and age that makes half of us wonder if we'd get on some eff'n homeland security watchlist on signup.

A refreshing design coming from Google. So Google has two group of sites, one is like Schemer, YouTube, Blogger that has its own domain and no black menu bar. The other groups are GMail, Reader etc which is subdomain of Google and has a prominent black menu bar. Wonder how Google split their products.

This looks really interesting! I was actually thinking about this the other day. Similar to meetup, but a bit more informal and you're not restricted meetup "groups." I'm in Philadelphia for a week and wanted to find random cool stuff to do (that I haven't done already).

Wow, this actually looks...fun! It seems more like a fun little startup that plans on getting acquired, except it's by google.

I have a list of stuff I've been meaning to do in my VimWiki, so I guess now I can make those public and have people hold me to them now.

Requires Google+, no thanks. Would have used it if it wasn't for Google.

I love the design & personality!

The core premise reminds me of http://www.43things.com

Wow, I love the look and feel and the personality of the site.. Go Google, Thanks for the Invite.

The whole site's interface should be in the form of this 3d scene.

What's the difference between this an ditto.me?

completely unrelated to it, it reminded me about littleschemer and that domain was unregistered!!

The crepe is flipping the wrong way.

it's been out for months already.
