Today I am announcing a new name for Yola. Tint - a recursive acronym for "Tint Is Not Twitter" - is my private social networking website.
Tint will be entering beta sometime near the end of November. This means that it will be feature-complete and available for anyone to try out and test, ideally while providing me with feedback about how the site works.
The core focus of Tint lies in simplicity and scale: provide an easy-to-use, private, secure social networking site that allows my friends and I to communicate privately among one another. This includes status updates, photo hosting, a small profile, and eventually a comment system. Anyone who is overwhelmed by Facebook's huge size and constant security gaffes is welcome to join Tint as well.
I will be sending beta invitations to a select few of my friends at the end of November. My goal is to have Tint complete by CodeMash in January, 2011. Screenshots coming soon.
B3 out.
