A digital life aggegator just seems like yet another tool to manage your personal brand. I've even seen advertisements for paid services that will manage your online image for you. Because sometimes googling yourself just isn't enough. Chris,

That homepage populated and I almost had a seizure. I'm sure they're going for maximum effect there, but it's looks a bit like the old Netscape portal from the late 90s. "We don't know what you want, so here's everything!" Well, except once you find your way around you can pick and choose what you like. Very cool, but the build your own homepage idea has been around in the form of my.yahoo.com for years. While NetVibes may be the evolution of build-your-own pages, check out the ultimate personalization: http://www.profilactic.com. "Profilactic is a digital life aggregator that makes it easy to keep up with all of the content you and your friends create online." A page where you can mash up all the content YOU added to the web. How vain. Has the tide of 2.0 risen so high that we now need a tool to manage all of our participation on the web? I guess Eric doesn't need it yet. Wow.
