Setup Your Own Diaspora Pod

[ Thanks to Michael L. Aaronson MD for this link. ]

"Why did I choose Diaspora? Why not Google plus? Google has created a "free" Facebook alternative. The problem with their kind gesture is that it is not done for the purpose of freedom and privacy but more for their need to know everything about the customer to target their advertising and make money. At the end of the day, they are no different than Facebook.

"You might note that Diaspora appears to be just like Google+. There are many similarities with respect to the look and feel of the two programs."
