+At its heart, Red is a decentralised collection of location agnostic info streams (e.g. "channels") which are attached to permission controlled web resources, and which have the ability to discover each other and interact.

+Social networking emulation is one form that these streams can take, but they can take many other forms - limited only by your magination.
