I’m a little conflicted about the personal life aggregators services that have sprung up. Second Brain, Iminta, Friend Feed — each pulls from the various places where you create content (delicious, flickr, amazon wishlists, blogs, netflix queues, etc.) and feeds that content into one view that you then share with your network.
It’s good to see all the activity in one spot, but it’s not good, too. I have some real concerns with having my various activities and associated time stamps in one convenient location. The log of my minute to minute Internet surfing is not something I want to explain or justify to anyone. I war with convenience versus privacy, community building versus lone experimentation/interests. I always do.
I’m going to play with these for a while and then make a decision. Friend Feed seems to have the best range of options and user interface. If you sign up, look for me. We can experience the madness together.
