Only commune

A new social/community/etc. site called iLike has launched, notes iLounge. It’s another site where you create a profile and bond with others through consumption habits — in this case, music-consumption habits. “iLike will help you find new music based on what you and your friends like,” the site says, promising “a more democratic music industry,” and the slogan: “Music of the people, by the people, for me.”

I think it’s about time for a community-community site. You could go on and create a profile and share with your friends all your opinions about the other community sites you’re part of, and discover the cool new community sites that are enjoyed by other community site members who are just like you. The result would of course be the democratization of online community-ness. Community of the community, by the community. For you.

Further diversion may be found at MKTG Tumblr, and the Consumed Facebook page.
