On Fornication And Genetics in The Breedster Age The site which launched a social networking app based around insect fornication and copulograms, gave rise to mass projects, insect personals, and even racist clans now presents some early findings including interesting animations of a populated world.
Not to disparage this finely linked post. :) Just Breedster.

gleuschk: Nothing in particular. I was just gloating over hearing about Breedster a long time before my social-network node-mates.
I got a whole bunch of whuffie off of that, which I pooled with the whuffie I got from snubbing Friendster to trade in for a nanotoaster.
I spend my time sailing the high and rough seas of the intarwap going "Arrrrr!" while collecting shiny links to long or short sell on teh slippery and squirrelly noohypermarkets.

interesting animations of a populated world.
because animations of an unpopulated world would be sorta boring.

Pfft. Shows what I know. The "two months" pseudosnarkiness was just a hat pull. Sorry. I literally just got the email for the symposium thingy.

gleuschk: It looks like Breedster introduced diseases on the 21st.

Ah. Yeah, if I'd bothered to read the graphs at all carefully....

That's one of the tricky things about Breedster. You can't just invite people willy-nilly. You have to breed with someone to produce eggs. These eggs are the invites, and they expire after a week if the invite isn't accepted.
This just makes it difficult to expand the network, which is kind of the point I guess.
I don't have any eggs. I let my account languish 'cause it's just bothersome. It's kind of entertaining in a Tamagotchi kind of way, but is basically a thumb-twiddling style time waster.

So, since we're not going to get in, and it's stupid anyway... how does it work?
