Ask HN: Is Apple carving out a pseudo social network with iOS5?
3 points by Deezul 5488 days ago
Considering the features in iMessage, Photo Stream, iCloud, Game Center, etc. Do iDevices now share a pseudo (web pageless) social network?

Can a social network really be pageless? As I understand you're only meant to reach out to strangers/friends you didn't think of in Game Centre, the rest is for people you intend to frequently share with.

How are you using "pseudo" in this context? Do you mean "implicit"? Are you trying to imply some sort of value judgement?
