Cliqset Founder Takes On Personal Publishing And Social Conversations With Stealthy Startup Glow

As we heard last fall, Cliqset, a FriendFeed like social aggregation platform, was shut down by its founders, Darren Bounds and Charlie Cauthen. Cliqset, which launched in 2009, was a high-powered social syndication and aggregation service, with the ability to post and syndicate content on Cliqset, Facebook, Twitter, Google Buzz and 80 other sites and networks. You can read our prior coverage of Cliqset here. As Louis Gray wrote last November, the startup was one of the first networks to implement Pubsubhubbub for real-time updates, and Salmon for cross-network comment posting. But despite these technologies, the service couldn't attract an active number of users and landed in the deadpool. It looks like Bounds is on to his next project?Glow. Bounds writes that Glow is his "personal attempt at building a social network that doesn?t sacrifice simplicity, features or user-experience in an effort to promote decentralization, user privacy and data ownership." The site, which is in stealth mode for now, will combine personal publishing ans social conversation.
