If you were to create a social network from scratch what features would you include? What features would you not include?
Here is some of what I came up with:
- It should allow networking or adding users as friends
- It should allow users to import contacts from other social networks.
- It should allow users to share music choices
- It should allow users to share tv programming, possible tivo integration?
- It should allow users to share online bookmarks
- It should allow unlimited photo storage, possible tie in with flickr?
- It should allow a tie in with youtube via the free youtube api
- It should allow users to pull in unlimited RSS feeds.
- allow location based status updates. Enable your phone to update status with where you are at currently
Basically it should enable users to do what they want to do. Anticipate things that users might want and enable that. I think that the success of myspace was because people were able to hack it and customize their displays.
