The dandelion's seeds flew round like parachutes in the wind, growing more network pods, spreading the idea of a federated social network far and wide. Today diaspora* network is a community project with a stable userbase and a defined development cicle. Many people have joined the diaspora clan in search of a macroblogging social platform that returns control to the users. At first glance diaspora* may seem quiet. But a curious eye and an open mind will find knowledge and kindred spirits here. Join diaspora* today!",
