Life recorders and agrregators - working in harmony Marc responded to my post last week about Digital Life Recorders and Digital Lifestyle Aggregators. He brings up some interesting points about: usability backup situated software social interfaces This is a tall order for any piece of software. The key is in the word aggregators - note that the word is plural with an "s." We'll be using many services or pieces of software that are working in unison to provide one contiguous experience. A current taste of this is Feedburner. It works seemlessly to bring together photos from Flickr, bookmarks from Del.icio.us and enhance my rss file. And it is simple taboot. Of course, this will require people to work in existing technologies such as RSS, RDF, FOAF and so on to make this cohesive whole. The politics of standards are always the fun part. 5:50:19 PM    comment []  trackback []
