Hacker News new | ask | show | jobs

About a month ago, there was a post here on hacker news about how Google was potentially working on a social networking site based around your circles. Turns out that it was just a rumor and that Google has no intention on working on such a site. I really liked the idea and it was something that i had personally been waiting for. Since Google had abandoned circles (or the idea of it at least) i then entertained the thought of rolling one out for me and my friends. So I started digging around on the subject and found Paul Adam's presentation "The real life social network" http://www.slideshare.net/padday/the-real-life-social-networ... and became fully inspired to create CircleRiot. One fun month later of just coding; i rolled out CircleRiot for me and my friends to enjoy. Needless to say they loved it. So now I thought i'd share this with hacker news hoping that you guys will enjoy it as well as we did. So enjoy! Feel free to leave feedback. I'm anxious to hear what you guys think of this.

Btw: this site is invites only. If you'd like to invite your friends, please send them the invite link that is created with your account. Thank you!

I wanted to sign up but my name was rejected as invalid ("Barrère") - most likely because of the accent in it; you may want to fix that :)
I'll look into it :)
