So basically, who is on it and what do you know about it so far? Looks like it could be pretty big ... they certainly have the backers to make it as big as they want

This properly live now? Been invite only BETA for a while. It's semi live, people who signed up well in advance are live as of today and various people and sites (Bridge to Gantry, Pistonheads, Jalopnik etc) have been given some codes to give away. The official live date is the 28th but they are releasing it a bit at a time. Seems to be quite clever marketing, you can see it but not use it so there's a lot of people chomping at the bit to get going Russell

Ive signed up but I don't have a code, so I'll have to wait until its live to get stuck in.

Managed to get myself on ... and found a few familiar names while I was there, so once you're on drivetribe have a look for Project M and Mighty5s

Something along the lines of instagram / twitter but for car people ... I think! It's being pushed by Clarkson, Hammond and May but the power behind it is Fox, so they have no budget issues!! Russell

Ive signed up for it, and found Mighty5s on there too, though I'm not hugely sure what it'll be able to do over current social media sites... will see how it goes.

It is ok, as with any new platform it is not without issues.
The app is pretty shocking in it's complete lack of settings. I uninstalled it when I found I couldn't disable notifications within the app. Rubbish!
Plenty of cool content though.

Only used it on my phone's browser so far and it is essentially just instagram with just cars from current experience

The app currently only really allows photo posting. The website version allows you to post articles interspersed with photos and quotes and videos. It's essentially a very good blogging platform.
