So today I accidentally typed with my hand on the wrong keys and started a social network.

In other news, my G1 pony icon reminded me that Out of Context Animation actually accepted and posted that one screenshot I sent them. Hoofzy Hooray!

… dammit.

Should I be snapping this up so no one does something horrible with it?

"Hoofzies," to me, sounds less like a social network and more like some sort of hoof-themed footwear. All the comfort of slippers, with the clippity-cloppity sound hooves make with every step.

Y'know, that could actually work...

Say what you will, but in the future, if I ever have a comedic project with room for background refrences (like a webcomic or something, or maybe Adventure of Sam?) I'm totally going to have someone's computer in the background be on hoofzy.com. It will be on a "Click to water your eggs! (Add fertilizer: 100 HZ$)" screen, or something with a vague combination of obvious digital pet/social referral trapping/microtransactions/etc. parody and "yes, that's exactly how equine reproduction works" like that.

Good grief, I feel old. I remember seeing the G1 MLP when it was around on tv.

But yeah, Hoofzies (-zys?) sound more fun than Zwinkies (-ys?). I'm not sure that's saying much, but it's a start, I guess. :P

better than Whorses (not their real name!) and those horses advertised to have REAL SWAROVSKI CRYSTALS or something, though.
