Red Hat, the Linux distributor, is developing an open source social networking service called MugShot.
The platform-neutral service enable users to chat, share links and information about music. Mugshot is designed for mainstream users and allows developers to create new services that leverage the core functionality of the platform. Television, video and photo sharing are expected soon.
Why they rely on a client application is beyond me, although the FAQ says it works with existing installed version of popular P2P, chat and music apps.
Mugshot is currently open by invitation only. More at Ars Technica.

Even for the techies, their current feature set isn’t worth the download. However it has great potential and I look forward to seeing what they add.
