The other week I happened to stumble across SocialKloud, a new social network designed to replace the now-dead Pownce. For those who where familiar with Pownce, SocialKloud will look very familiar to you. In fact, it’s pretty much got an identical interface and set of features. This brings back great memories of the Pownce days.
The service is still in beta, though it feels pretty solid. It’s missing a bit of chrome, like the ability to change the theme of your timeline. Right now the default theme is pretty ugly, in my opinion. The only other thing it really needs is users. I almost feel that SocialKloud has come a bit too late after the death of Pownce. A lot of users have already moved on to different services such as Plurk (my current favorite), Twitter, Vox, etc…
I really like SocialKloud, but I can’t see myself REALLY using it unless a lot of my old Pownce friends converted over to it. It has a lot of potential, now it just needs the users.
It‘s quite in here! Why not leave a response?
