Jason Calacanis has made social software one of his earliest launches in his Weblogs, Inc. effort, with a blog named (duh) socialsoftware.weblogsinc.com. The coverage is fairly business focused, with several entries on the flow of investment money going to social software firms. The most recent piece is on BoingBoing's Xeni Jardin announcing a BoingBoing Tribe on Tribes.net. BoingBoing previously dropped their "Discuss" link to their articles, in order to stem the problem of anonymous spam, tolls, flamebait, etc. (It's all about social membranes.) (10/10/03: Update, after Cory's comment.) I've known Jason for the better part of a decade, since the Silicon Alley Reporter was stapled instead of bound, and he has a genius for calling things as they break, so the blog will be worth watching.

"The most recent piece is on BoingBoing switching to Tribes.net."

Boing Boing didn't do any such thing.
