@discussthang Yes. Except for private instances. Remember that you've got #FOAF data for every profile too, programmatically linking user accounts together using RDF. So there's no point in hiding the user directory.
-
@discussthang Except to find lonely users without friends.

@tuttle Every day I think of doing something awesome with the #FOAF profiles. Then I go to bed.
Something like this: https://social.umeahackerspace.se/attachment/54386

@benediktg Crawling the profiles should get all interesting profiles. Any profiles not connected via FOAF are probably best left ignored. (for example all the users who have never posted a single notice and have a nickname that matches regexp ^[a-z]{2}$ on #quitter.is :P

@tuttle Well, you could bundle the results together so you get instance links instead of personal profile links. Extending and weighing that data with "last posted notice" gives you which clusters are more active than others etc. cc: @benediktg
