Mozilla Raindrop
Mozilla has announced the Raindrop project today, a new messaging platform built on top of Apache CouchDB:
A central principle behind Raindrop is that messaging should be personal -- we want Raindrop to be people-centric both in how we process messages, and in how we can help give people control over their personal data and experiences.
This is a huge deal for me and for CouchDB. I can't describe how proud I am of this.

Really pleased for you Damien! It's great to see how other people are now taking your dream and using it. I remember when you were talking about Couch as an idea and now look at it! Way to go!

Excellent news. With CouchDB being used by Ubuntu and Mozilla you have a full embrace of important players in the OpenSource community.

Interesting project. From the videos, this resembles google wave a little.
Pulling the sources from Mozilla mercurial to check it out now.
Thanks for the tip DK.

I can't wait until I see the final product. The phrase "Private massaging" seems to be something very promising. I wonder what will Raindrop look like.
