Hi, I don't remember being a member of Mitosis in the past - and was surprised to get an invite to the beta... :) But, now that I'm here, what do you think Mitosis will be "when it grows up"? Techie with a dash of social networking? And mitosis - isn't that the term for cell division? How's that play into the vision of the site?

Hi Mike. Good questions. I picture mitosis to have news aggregation on the front end and social networking on the back end. I'd also like to integrate other social elements into a persons profile page. Say, for example, your twitter feed or your youtube favorites list.

There's always been a strong tech influence here and since technology plays an ever increasing role in all jobs, I think there's plenty of room to expand in that direction. Whatever else comes, so be it. Who knows, maybe someday we'll be known as the best place to find old-timer internet users who remember dial-up.

As for the term Mitosis, It's cellular division. Many from one. Reminds me of how social networks operate and I think it's pretty fitting.
