Yeah, it's federated server software. It's meant to be run by people who provide a hosted environment for users.
In other words, it's software for anyone who wants to run their own facebook-like site. Except that all the sites running it connect to each other.
Once it's out of beta, most users will just go to a sign up page of any number of nodes out there (I think there's like 50 out there already? I'm not sure)
