Hot Dogs & Caviar

What I want out of app.net would be a community building machine -- like most web forums used to be. In 2012, I don't know anyone personally that follows a classic forum anymore; I want that type of connection without the archaic style. Building community on my own website, Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, and/or Twitter can be exhausting, tedious, and time consuming. If app.net let me create a community and interact easily so that I can focus on producing content, I'd love it.

Just my two cents.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! We strongly believe what you want App.net to be is exactly what twitter could have been (http://daltoncaldwell.com/what-twitter-could-have-been). We are definitely thinking a lot about community building.
