Profilactic: Not A Misspelling, Just An Awesome Website
Yesterday I was looking through WordPress plug-ins and saw a couple talking about LifeStreaming. The term was unfamiliar, but the concept interested me. LifeStreaming is the act of living your life online available for all (like MySpace, Flickr, Digg, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Yahoo!, etc.)
As far as LifeStreaming goes, the biggest and best player of all LifeStreaming aggregators would have to be Profilactic.com. Essentially, it gathers all the information you post from sites you are a member of from all over the web, puts them all together chronologically and aggregates them in one place. It’s kind of like the king of all RSS feeds and it’s all content posted by you.
Its pretty simple. Sign up, tell them what other sites you are a member of, add those sites to your Profilactic profile and BAM! An on-going flow of your site updates. With 175+ social sites it already works with, you’ll be hard pressed to find one you’re a member of that they don’t know about.
Have a look for yourself. If you use the service, let me know. My Profilactic account is HERE (http://www.profilactic.com/mashup/wishx). My account is still pretty new so there isn’t a lot on it, but you can see other people’s longer-running mashups HERE, HERE and HERE

This is where I was supposed to put something informative or witty about myself, but I ran out of time, so this is all you get for now. Sorry.
