Hope this guy is not emo... :-) My 5 (Not that I agree, I don't know, unlikely makes sense; such ideas are good until it's too late; only fresh ideas like that works -- rarely...)

Sad to say but there are many social network on the web. It is hard to use it for the people who are currently using another social net sites. You must think of the people's(since they are the user)estate and emotion.
Imagine if I am the only one using it. My friends would rather use facebook rather that that because they have many friends their. What should I do? (I'll rather abandoned my account on your website rather than on facebook)
It could work if you have a lot of money for advertising, for TV, webs, etc.

My vote: 3 out of 10
Recommendation:
It is better to create an online games (MMORPG) where the users doesnt need to download huge amount of app data just to play that game. You could use java (like Godswar on facebook)for this.
Try and see for yourself
