Microsoft's new social site.. Tulalip

Microsoft working on secret project to launch new social networking site to kill both FACEBOOK and GOOGLE+.


Microsoft accidentally published a splash page under the domain name Socl.com.


When mistake was found by various technology writers and bloggers,

Microsoft replaced the "TULALIP" project with a brief message that reads, "Thanks for stopping by. Socl.com is an internal design project from a team in Microsoft Research which was mistakenly published to the web. We didn’t mean to, honest."

But some of the bloggers managed to take screenshots and identify the nature of the project.
Reports added that,

Tulalip is a service that lets users " Find what you need and share what you know easier than ever." There was options to connect Facebook and Twitter, but no integration with Google+.

Search Engine Land says, "It’s far too soon to speculate if this some kind of Microsoft response to Google+, but as Fusible points out in a different article,
Microsoft’s domain activity — which may include a purchase of social.com, too — has all happened in the past two weeks, after Google+ launched on June 28th."

Let's wait and watch Microsoft's secret plan to jump into social networking market..
