Meta-identity content, ok then Lifestreams

Filed under: newsmaster

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.
