Re: Diaspora invites

I don’t think it’s an either/or situation as it has never been. It’s important to understand the difference between Diaspora and other social applications on conceptual level. Some (admittedly fewer) will put value into Diaspora’s concept; the majority will be using the “tool of the day”. Nothing bad.

As for the “experience” of Diaspora — it’s in my humble view, in need of further development but they hold a general philosophy of simple and clean and just that makes them (for me) a much more pleasant experience. Google have actually snatched some of Diaspora’s interface considerations, not mentioning the circles mechanism that is practically Diaspora’s aspects.

In this line of thought, where things will go will come clear as people use those applications, but I personally don’t spend time speculating because it’s not very productive.

Agreed on both counts. And different reasons for use will shape use strategies too.
