Stormdriver: blue pill or red pill?
« on: November 15, 2011, 12:57 PM »
Anybody going to check this out?

StormDriver is a web app that provides a single interactive overlay for the whole Web without the need to install anything. For the first time ever, social interaction is not restricted to the walled garden of a social network. In StormDriver you can instantly see who else is on the same website as you, where people came from and where they are going.

You can interact and exchange ideas whenever and wherever you want, whatever the website architecture.


Mashable business reported on this before the site officially launched, where they stumbled upon a mystery site that closely resembled (to me, at least) a rabbit hole for a new ARG:

Color me skeptical...

I doubt it's going to work everywhere.

And even if it did, would you want it? Having all of your traffic analyzed and profiled, worse than even google and facebook combined? Oh, happi happi joi joi.

Hehe, my thoughts exactly.
But it goes along with the Matrix vibe, though.
