I am on Diaspora. Beta is being generous. It is still alpha. You really can't do much more than post a status update on it, but there is nobody to see it, so what is the point?

I don;t see it ever being more than a niche service popular with geeks.

Haven't we pretty much solved the spam issue for end users? I'm sure it's a still royal PITA for email system admins, but I've had the same email address since 1998 and I see maybe 1 or 2 spam emails a week in my Gmail account. It's such a non issue that I never think about it, which is probably not a good thing as spam certainly is still a big problem, but it's a problem that technology has mostly hidden from email users.
