Re: Audio Based Social Media App
Both ZoneBBS by phone and Klango had audio profile capabilities, The Zone also had the ability to have a small textual tag-line at the beginning of posts as a sort of quick introduction, the opposite of signatures as it were. Klango also had an open media catalog, so in turn was a great podcatcher and internet radio-streamer. There were also voice forums.
Your social media timeline approach sounds good, though I would also couple it with forums if people would prefer more organized discussion. I assume an api for games to communicate with this would be in the cards as well?
As an example, back in 2000 there was a turn-based game called accessible starfight, essentially a cross between Space-Invaders and Battleship, with online capability. The way to start an online game was through a program called Accessible Chat. Maybe, in a way similar to iMessage, there can be a games button next to the chat box that allows you to look at a list of integrated games and send an invite for one to the person you are chatting with. You could also see what games they've got tied to their account, so that the system does not attempt to start a game the receiving user might not have.
