I feel you man, I really do. I share your concerns over the major social networks, and I can see that you're really passionate about what you're doing and where you're going. I can see two major roadblocks, though: getting users to quit their Facebook, Twitter, Google+ or Path is HARD. You're running against some mighty big dogs, here. How are you going to convince users to switch?

The other roadblock is monetization. If you arent't going to sell your users data to advertisers, how are you going to make enough money to keep things going?

If you figure these things out, you're onto something. Let us know how things are working out, I know we all like to read about a coding guy with a crazy idea who lives in a beach cruiser!
