Friendica (formerly known as Friendika) is open source software that implements a distributed social network. Before it became Friendika, the project started initially as Mistpark, developed by Mike Macgirvin,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mistpark's license on github )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mistpark's last README file on github pointing the new project Friendika )〕 a software developer who had worked on the original Netscape Navigator project, among others. Friendica has an emphasis on extensive privacy settings and easy server installation. It aims to federate with as many other social networks as possible. In November 2014, the global directory of Friendica users has about 10,000 entries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Friendica' global directory )〕 This is just the number of users who decided to publish their profiles in the public global directory. ==Features== Currently, Friendica users can integrate contacts from Facebook, Twitter, Diaspora, GNU social, App.net, Pump.io and other services in their social streams. Communication is bi-directional wherever possible. There is also a bridge to include email contacts and RSS feeds. Additionally, connectors allow cross-posting to blog platforms like WordPress, Livejournal, Tumblr and Posterous. As the user account are spread over many servers, the addresses are composed of three parts, similar to email addresses, the user name, at "@" and the domain name of the Friendica instance.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Features )〕 Friendica provides many of the features known from other microblogging or social networking service platforms, e.g. addressing interlocutors by mentioning them, private messaging, hashtags, picture galleries, "Likes" and "Dislikes", comments and the sharing of public posts. Furthermore, it is possible to edit sent posts later. Detailed privacy settings allow to control the visibility of every post. Users can create different profiles and choose which profile information which group of interlocutors can see. User profiles can be deleted, downloaded and imported to a different Friendica server.〔 It is possible to register different accounts with the same email address and easily switch between them. This feature allows users to open several groups, each of which has its group forum.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=friendica/Forums.md at master · friendica/friendica · GitHub )〕 There are different themes and many addons for Friendica, e.g. the connectors that establish communication with the platforms mentioned above. The developers try to make installation of the server software easy for users with little technical expertise, arguing that decentralization on small servers is a key safeguard of online freedom and privacy. Friendica can even be installed on shared hosts, with a degree of simplicity similar to WordPress installation. Users can also elect to join public sites run by volunteers, thus avoiding installation entirely. Friendica, like GNU social, also supports the OStatus protocol suite, which allows servers to route status updates and notifications between each other in real time.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Friendica」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
