Scirocco Central

As title really anyone? Been having a bit of a play and seems good - can definitely see its potential over Facebook

Yes, I like it and can also see its potential to effect facebook, but will it be a flop like Buzz?

Circles is awesome and pain free, unlike Facebook friend lists.
Sparks seems like it wants to be Flipboard for the web, good concept. Could it replace Google Reader/iGoogle?

Not sure if it will become part of my day to day life, but I thought the same about gmail, chrome, analytics, alerts, checkout, maps, images, youtube, translate, search, history & probably a few more!

Really like the way you can much more easily control who sees what - being able to choose what friends see rather than say work colleagues seems good. I also like that you can choose just an individual aswell.

Maybe we should start a scirocco central group?

I'm on now.

Mmm.... from an early look I dunno. It kind of does all the same things just slightly differently. Their problem is that 500m people are on FB. You would have to convince all of your friends and family to move move. I think that's a big ask. They'll get a few switchers, just like they do with Chrome, but at the end of the day they're a bit late to the game.
