Ask HN: Review our anonymous networking app

Hi HN, we need help vetting our first product, socialface.com. A site to help people create and share anonymous networks.

  http://www.socialface.com/

Anonymous networks are registration-free and may be open to anyone, or, secure, private, and password-protected so that only those in the know may see and use them (i.e. a secure virtual third space).

We think they're an excellent choice for new groups and communities but could also work well as an alternative hub or "back channel" for existing organizations.

Today's top features are:

  - 100% registration-free
  - completely anonymous (IP-level)
  - constant SSL available
  - supports .jpg, .png, .pdf, .zip, .dmg, .rar uploads
  - integrated tipjoy payment service

The big picture goal we're working towards is to build an open networking platform based on three core principals: you have the right to be secure/private, to publish freely within the law, and to profit from your creations.

We're looking for feedback on all aspects of the site, but would appreciate extra scrutiny on the platform aspects:

  - privacy and security issues
  - rights of networks, admins, and users
  - anonymous role-based authentication via downloadable codes
  - monetization / revenue sharing

Our immediate plans are to deploy what we have today (early beta), work on feedback, add network admin tools, add customizable theme support, then hard launch in 10-14 days.

We believe the foundations of a truly modern network probably look something like this, but we need your help to guide and shape things, thanks!
