Well, just like any social network, I'll pass on this one ^_^

However, there are few issues in my humble opinion:
- support appears to me much more efficient on a per distribution /
per language forum
- the rank system will inevitably lead to some race, people speaking a
looooooot and not necessarily providing valuable help
- geeks already tend to be marginalized, as we can appear « weird » to
some people. This is a social network for geeks, and I'm not sure this
will help us show that Linux is not only for geeks / nerds with a
beard that spend their nights coding in their basement.
- « a dream laptop signed by Linus Torvalds » Are we some fanboys ? o_O

« ZOMG !!!1!11!! I has lapt0p signed by Linus !!!!oneleven!! »

Anyway, I wish them the best of luck and certainly don't want to blame
them for trying something :)
