Ourbook turned out good as a name (I might be biased ;-) )
So, this is the idea:
In countries where press freedom is in violent danger (cough, everywhere really, cough), it could be good for journalists / anyone to use ourbook, but still as a "public person" on it. However, for the things that must not be associated with them, it would be important to have a completely anonymous profile.
Switching between will be tedious. And dangerous - it's easy to forget which user one is at a certain time. One single mistake in a stressful / tired / drunken moment could blow the anonymity.
That's why I propose - the very supersimple solution that ourbook is compiled in two versions: "ourbook" and "blackbook". They each have an entry in app-stores. So you have two installations on your device, and hence two accounts configured. They would simply have different color-schemes by default (light vs dark bg as an obvious suggestion) so that you never mistake which one you're in.
I think this is a rather elegant simple solution to a real problem.

Well, as I said in #2 - I'll re-iterate here.
