Do you backup the information stored on the laptop? Are you worried about being "mugged"?

There's no "niche", I want to talk with my friends, not a bunch of people talking about security. You know?

This is why App.Net will fail.
You will find it hard, rather impossible, to convince young adults, college students, and parents to pay for a service that's already provided for free--especially when the paid service is a dead-end.
I don't like Facebook, but I have an account to talk with friends and shoot the shit with people I don't want to have a personal relationship with. If all those friends were not there (as is the case with App.Net), what would I do? Play with all the cool features all day? Tell people how cool it is to "own" my content?
If people do not come, I will never come. See the catch-22?
App.Net should cut it now. AWESOME idea, but will not happen.
