What if there was a social networking site that was set to broadcast our relationships? Not with our friends or family members, but with our girlfriends, our husbands, our most private lives publicly spewed for the world to see. Imagine this site as a way for the world to better learn the inter workings of relationships; what's been working, and what hasn't been; whether you're problem is yours only, or if there are others with experience to share. A site where daily thoughts aren't "Going shopping with the girls, getting tans at 5 and then Club Domingo all night loooonnng!!!", but more like "We talked about it, for the first time we shared our differences and it really worked".
Is there cause for concern? The beauty behind this is that as this site grows it becomes a database of relationships; a collection of years of experience in problem solving, sharing lives, escaping without leaving, sex, lies and video tapes. But your question is, why would people want to join this? What would I get out of this if my boyfriend knew that I was talking about how he cries during scary movies? Anonymity is the response I can give you, as a user you'll be prompted to enter a username (like AOL 3.0 yay!) or to display your full name (think about the clinical psychologist, sex doctors and gynochologists that would love to advertise their ideas); so you can stay anonymous or you can be up front about who you are. The point isn't to create a steamy site of pornographic material, but to create a massive relationship management site where couples of all types, creeds and styles can come together to share experiences, thoughts or just to browse content.
Think about it America. If you can share daily life on facebook, twitter, myspace or any other social networking site, why cant you share your daily life... just the intimate side?
