I checked out the various Web 2.0 aggregators and found Spokeo most disturbing. It made promises of being able to dig up all the dirt and darkest secrets of people you know. That seemed a bit too much for me.
I decided to check out Profilactic and Friendfeed. I felt that Profilactic was easier to use, organize and edit.
Like many things, I think I would make use of an aggregator for a few days and then forget about it. It's just another thing added to the list to look at. Even though the aggregators purpose is to organize all my web sites/social networking and combine them into one viewing spot it seems like I would never stick to this. I compare it to buying a planner at the beginning of the school year in August and by the end of the year noticing I stopped using it in September. I like the concept, but it probably won't work for me. Privacy seems to be an issue as well. I'm not sure I like putting all my accounts together in one place. For now, I think I'll use RSS and keep everything separated!
