Email, web browsing, RSS, file transfers...everyone uses those across many client apps, but with only a few common protocol standards. The issue is settling on a social network standard of some kind, which users can plug into with their choice of front end.
gReader on droid - there is no substitute. Been using it since day 1 of owning my 1st droid. Someone pls don't tell me it's going to stop working come July....? *cringe*

I thought he was going for pyrrhivacy, as in pyrrhic privacy
