Awesome idea! I'll do some more testing with it and have some perfect use cases in mind.

Is there any thought to have a web-based component to it, or use it only from mobile?

I know Ryan's usage idea is more focused, but to Sarah's comment about the "massive social data silos" - I agree (or hope, at least) that users will eventually get fed up with the crap we take from the social media giants. And I'm all for owning our own data. My concern, however, is that users won't see disparate, self-owned social apps as a solution, as it's feasible that they might have to belong to ten or more different networks to collaborate with the different groups of people in their lives. I could easily see creating one for my family, a couple for community groups, likely several for various WordPress sub-communities, and so on.

If there's any hope for this kind of thing to replace our current social networks, we need some way to tie them together. Maybe a central web app (and/or mobile app) through which you could access the different networks. Of course, the problem there is, who runs the central app and where is the money coming from to keep it alive? So many questions, but not out of the realm of possibility.

Back to Status App, specifically - Great work Ryan! I look forward to the additional features.
