Hacker News Reader

was leading in to.

This being hacker news I figured hackability is the main thing that it should provide over other social networks. Otherwise why do it at all, then you might as well use facebook or something like it.

Oh, my bad. I didn't know. :)

No, don't worry about it, you couldn't :)

As with any idea I'm sure there are at least 10 people walking around with it.

It's pretty sketchy still but I think a social network that is basically just a database backend and a default front end that can be customized to the hilt should be a fun thing to build.
