Further off topic than usual, but I ran across this as I browsed Springwise after a friend suggested it might be blog worthy. It's a little early for me to decide on the value of it, it's kind of a share the latest idea/entrepreneurial type site, and I'll watch their feed for a while to see if it's a good resource. But...back to the story. I click around a little, wind up on the main page, the top item at the time was for bedpost, which identifies itself as having zero social networking features because it's a site about tracking your sex life. If you follow the link (nothing objectionable) the sample screen has inputs for the time started, how long it lasted, who it was with, and then some tags.
I have to say I had to pause to laugh and roll my eyes. Always room for another niche in the world, but really - how many people are going to use this? Is it so you can back to the significant other and prove you're not getting busy often enough? Bragging rights with the boys (no scorecard that I can see)? A really targeted diary/blog? I have to think the most value from this service would be running a ticker on a big monitor to watch the new entries come in, and of course maybe some aggregate data mining about trends. Just think of the tags you'd find! Tie this to Twitter and the world will be stranger still.
On the business side I admire the approach; find a high interest niche and try to find a niche within that. I don't know if it will work, but it's a simple idea and not hard to build.
