Hi Michael, It all sounds promising, and I hope it works out. What would get me to use it regularly is if it became large enough to become engaging in that Facebook way both nationally and locally. I use Facebook for friends and family. Political...

Hi Michael, I value and financially support your efforts and know that you and Z have had great impact on the left. I also am concerned that we don't only talk to each other. Here are thoughts about some of what you wrote: Of...

In my own experience - perhaps yours is different - open source is not just apolitical. It is very very narrowly focused, foregoing options to actually have serious impact and positions. Sadly. And it even takes this stance proudly and milit...

I think it's very important to recognise that there is already a non-corporate, ostensibly a-political alternative movement "out there" in the ethernet, that the internet has always had, indeed that sowed the seeds of the internet. L...

Thank you Micheal for the great idea. I sincerely hope that the project is launched soon. It could then become a platform for the left groups and individuals all over the world. I am very excited already. With solidarity. Biplab

This is of course the response we need, once the system is public.

Very promising, and I agree with everything you've pointed out. I have exactly the same feeling from using social websites, that one must utilize them grudgingly to achieve certain groups and goals. The system they're feeding and the (anti)social ...

When it's time to promote ZSocial to the broader activist community, one way of doing so could be to create a mass email that lists five (or ten?) reasons to sign-up for it. Here the reasons I can think of. I'm sure there are m...

Why would you ever be concerned about being ostracized? Is it that you think that people who believe capitalism is a disease can't deal with diversity? We live in a capitalist society so everything we do interacts with it. Do...

FaceLeft is a great idea, and I'm certain would be received well by all who use Znet, and with promotion, could bring even more people into the Z community. Yes, social networking sites such as Facebook are diseased, as you correctly poi...

On the cheap, so to speak, we are going to try to deliver a site that works quite like facebook - but for the left, and with additional virtues. We will see! Sustainers will be able to access it first, and soon, helping us test it and develop it.

Hi Mr. Albert, I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling so strong about this. Facebook has resulted in severe consequences for employees being vetted/fired based on their FB activity, NGO's being blocked from publishing critical informat...

They will persist... This will replace many functions - but your ZSpace pages will still be there as a place to do as you like!
