Actually, socialwhois is more than a flat directory. The whois part is just a feature of it. What makes it "special" is connecting people by interests rather than popularity wich is IMHO wrong "by design". The more people sahre your interests, the more likely you'll have better interractions with them. If I'm looking for some help in, say, Python programming, I know who to ask. If I want to chat about jazz, I know who are interested too :)
