Diaspora, the alternative

The announcement of the new platform was made in April 2010 and received donations in excess of $ 200,000 in just over a month through the website Kickstarter, including Mark Zuckerberg, the creator of Facebook, who did not mind young people will benefit from the controversy over the privacy settings of the social network to advertise their own work.
"I think it's good that people try to do it yourself. I see something from me them," Zuckerberg said the site Wired.com in May last year.
Control
Diaspora promulgated the idea of sharing content with an emphasis on control of the material by each user.

"You do not have to endure the vagaries of large companies say they share content and maintain privacy are not compatible," said Raphael mobbed by teammates Sofaer, Dan and Max Salzber Grippi.
