I realized that I’m always talking about Web 2.0 in this blog, so it’s high time I got in the game. That’s why I founded my newest website today. thumbd is the newest social website to hit the internet.

The premise is simple: it will be a news rating system, but with a twist. It will also be an Open Source project, so the code will be released to the public. I hope to be able to create a collaborative community effort from the start. I’m looking for any and all volunteers who would like to contribute to the project. Contributors will receive credit on the contributors page. This might not seem like much at the start, but it could be a very well-linked website in the final run.

Please stop by and take a look at the initial “alpha” version. It’s only had about 1 hour of total development time, so expect it to tighten up quickly. Anyone who would like to pitch in an become part of a winning team, hit me up at the email on thumbd.net.
