Cool! Any plan to hook this into Tent or something similar (if that would make sense)?

Looks cool, maybe I'll contribute

Why this when Diaspora exists?

Diaspora is decentralized in the same way email is in that you still have a trusted third-party. Vole is peer-to-peer.

I'm not sure what dependencies Diaspora has, but the dependencies for vole seem minimal

Because the more the merrier?

I always thought cats were solitary creatures.

They're also sarcastic.

I wasn't though, I really think it's too early to worry about fragmentation or anything like that. Throw many approaches and microformats for exchange of data for all at the wall, see what sticks.. even if just to avoid local optima.

Having "the one and only way to have a decentralized social network" kinda would defeat the purpose, no?
