In July, reports emerged of a bare-bones version of Microsoft's Tulalip social network mistakenly hosted on Socl.com. This service allowed logging in via Facebook and Twitter. However, within a week, Microsoft hurriedly deleted the site and posted a retraction. Now, after a gap of three months, the guys from The Verge have got a chance to check out MS's project. According to them, the "Tulalip" name has been dropped in favour of Socl (pronounced "social"), which might itself be a temporary name. Nevertheless, it is certainly an improvement. The interface looks very similar to that of Facebook, with elements from Google+ thrown into the mix.
