In the realm of social networking and blogging, Virb is an outlier, and it's
in the positive direction. They combine the best aspects of those realms and put
it into a single entity. Great audio player (Myspace). Great Video player
(Vimeo). Great status updating system (Twitter). Great blogging system
(Blogger). Great photography cataloging system (Flickr).
Don't see it as theft, see it as ideal. Before, I had to go the different
website to do those different things. Upload pictures to Flickr. Update my
Twitter. Creep on Facebook. Blah blah blah. Now I do all that in one place,
Virb. Plus the interface is just uhhh, it will kill any user content website out
there (Good contender is tumblr).
Couple downside are the lack of people that are registered in Virb and also
the site is kind of slow. Other than that, it's a fantastic website.
Not much is wrong with this social network, however, no one uses it.
Actually, that's pretty much the only thing that needs to be wrong with a social
network in order to derail it. It came on the scene just a little too late.
Facebook FTW.
I remember when I was first in the Virb 1.0 beta, and was just in love with
what Virb was, and what it wasn't. I think the biggest thing was the advanced
customization options available.
I also love the intimacy that the Virb, Inc guys have with their users. They
listen to your feedback and suggestions, instead of just say "Okay
mhm" and moving on.

It has a lot of integration. Could have yet more.
i like the interface, looks promising.
When you first visit this website, it looks eerie and mysterious. Scares people away. In need of GUI makeover.

Virb 2.0 just reaffirmed my love for them.
Another one of those social networking sites. Very clean CSS. Mostly for clothing design and charity.
