Have you heard about Mastodon?

https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon

It's like a decentralized version of Twitter, with federalization. Might need to find a instance that's not busy with signups though.

Mastodon is (mainly?) a new implementation of GNU Social. It federates with existing GNU Social servers (which, as StatusNet go back to like 2007 or so). I hear it's a good quality implementation, though.
