duggspace.com — Inspired by Kevin Rose's $200 investment, and its success, I ask this: Can the collaborative social news phenomenon Digg.com inspire the rapid development of a MySpace-like social network created, collaboratively, by Digg users (designers, programmers, beta testers), using open source web infrastructure?

I disagree with 99.9% of this. Seems as we fail to see the forest for the trees. If you want a revolution you will have to start one, not ask people to start one. I believe the internet itself is the community you are trying to create. We don't need another centralized service. What we need is more software so regular folks can set up their own services. Bandwidth will soon be available for movie downloads to occur in seconds. With that power anyone could run their own search engine. Imagine if every blog had the capability of google to find similar blogs. Moore's law will allow this in maybe 25 years - much less time if several services collaborate. You will have to innovate to stay ahead of this. Large datasets, ie google earth, are safe place for the haves (for now). Data itself, like the length of a grocery checkout line for example, and other niche odds and ends may be a place for small tech firms to thrive. Finding quality and timely data is the key. Giving people a voice?? Well how hard is it to set up a blog? What exactly do you want to do? What's the big deal other than to make a few bucks. Myspace will not be killed in the future I see. It will not have it's glory stolen or be replaced. It will die a natural death like all other outdated things.

This sounds really interesting, I'd like to join up.As long as it's open source and non-profit (or at profit we donate to charity's, etc red cross).And how about something like, diggportal.com?

@deadbaby: I don't disagree. I was just making a point against the people who just jump on the MS bashing bandwagon cause its cool. The one thing MS is actually decent at is development products.@xxNIRVANAxx: I don't particularly care to associate 'bragging' (although only to make a point) about the site I/we built with the name of the site itself. That said, it probably wouldn't be hard to figure out if you look at my digg history.
