So what do you call it when you splice content from various feeds from all the web 2.0 services you publish content in:

Personal Content Management or Personal Content Stream
Profile Management
Identity Management or Identity Stream…even Meta-identity
Personal Data Stream
Life Stream

To make it even more confusing some of these services are even within a social network itself.

And there are even RSS remixing services that are more general and not focused just on personal RSS feeds (although you can use them for this purpose)

The structure of the content may even affect the name of this thing we are talking about, content can be a mixed stream, but it can also be widgets on a page, or even a cloud.

The Lifestream Blog is focused on this very activity, there’s even a post about defining this personal collective site.

The Lifestream blog has even started a list of Lifestreaming services…I’m going to clone this list adding some more related type services.

[ADDED 14/11/07: Ziki is still my favourite lifestream network]

Kyte - get your own space called a TV, also as a widget and mobile access, private or multi-authored, content can be video, images, even produce polls and slideshows, etc, and has real-time chat, but not video streaming like Ustream…learn more. I guess this reminds me of pickle and cellblock, only Kyte allows different types of content formats. See similar media mashup services.

Twittercamp - desktop app to monitor Twitter updates, suited for large screens.

Phonetag - voice updates to Twitter by phone…see spinmyblog to post by voice to your own blog.

Twitterviz - timeline to see the time frequency of your Twitter friends…you can kind of see this for one person as an author search on Twitterment. [via DM]

urlTea - shorten URL’s and annotate the URL eg. http://urltea.com/1?lol_at_the_photo
Notice that after the “?” you can annotate a string of characters…if you you this with Twitter and you bust the 140 character limit, it will still post as long as everything before the question mark is intact.
Besides shortening the URL with a bookmarklet, you can also do it with IM by adding teabot@urltea.com to your contacts or alternatively you can use it with IMified.
You can also post to Twitter by IM using IMified, handy when Twitter IM is down.

meshly - social bookmarks with tags, channels and voting, the main difference is you don’t post by a web form or a bookmarlet, it’s all by IM, even the initial registration. I like the idea of channels (folders) as well as tags, also see netvouz, clipmarks and Spurl. [RRW]

Panraven - mixed media scrap booking, see others [via mashable]

Yoname - search people networks, see Wink and others listed here…note some of these services search network services, and some search within its own service based on people registering their network profiles within the system, and others are more about a mixed stream of personal content rather than search, and some are all of the above. [via mashable]

Blogger & Podcaster magazine - Unreal, I’ve been waiting for a web2.0 trade mag, when I browse magazines I never find anything I like. Not sure if this magazine will be in the shops but you can; subscribe (pay) to the print, or print off the electronic version, read (free) the electronic version, listen to the electronic version (also on podcast), and subscribe for the latest on their blog.

Any other web2.0 trade mags I should know about?

Miniboxs - calls itself an RSS magazine, but all it’s just a single aggregator like Original Signal and others…make one yourself with BozPages, Netvibes Universe, PageFlakes public , Protopage public, Speedyfeed, Feedraider, Yourminis, webjam and others

Trailfire Groups - Trailfire is a way to annotate the web and create a hyperlink trail…they have now added a group feature (your trail is limited to a private or public group), wiki trails (communal editing trails), and a contacts network [via Mashable]

Snap Shots - Snap Preview Anywhere has been extended to more specific displays; a wikipedia or Amazon link will display that content excerpt instead of just a preview image of the website; a media URL will display a photo slideshow, play a video or audio clip, see the gallery.
I wonder if someone can develop a SnapShot Grazr mashup, so when you hover over an RSS or OPML URL you can graze away…I think Clever Clogs is tinkering on this one.

mowser - bookmark this website on your phone and surf the mobile friendly web [via WW]

deliciousTags2OPML - enter your del.icio.us username and ask to show tags that have a certain number of bookmarks and above. It generates an OPML code, I had to copy it in notepad and save it as test.txt.xml. Then I uploaded it to Grazr to host the file…then simply graze the feed content of your del.icio.us tags.

iceflake and findmeon - these are both meta-identity services, see Tabber, LinkMyBox, Profilefly, Loopster, Spock, iStalkr, OtherEgo, Zoolit, ShowYourself, Streakr, SocialURL, SocialGrapes, pidy, Pipl, Wink, Mugshot, Profilactic, UpScoop, SocialNetwork.In, ProfileLinker, Ziki, Lijit, and the rest.

8hands - another meta-identity service, but you download this one, and you can IM with other 8hands users. [via mashable]
