Microsoft has its own Social Network

[erich37]

I just found Microsoft's Social Network:

http://www.so.cl

I do not want to sign-up there...... does anyone of you have any screenshots of it ?
How does it work ?

Funny that you can login to Microsoft's Social Network using the facebook API.. Wouldn't that little gem alone qualify as somewhat of a fail?

Signed in via Facebook (which is hilarious in itself) and the site isn't much.

You a post instead of liking it. You can "riff" on a post which apparently reposts the post with your own comment, so sharing, but there's also a share option.

Design seems really cluttered too. Not a fan.

It's been up for a long time now and is only being used for studies and research on different things by Microsoft as far as I remember.

The problem about #4 is it would cover most forums.... Memo needs a re-write

Except most have integrated FB and Twitter now...it's the older platforms/people who haven't upgraded their platform that still have this.
