6. > There is a service on Facebook called ‘Dipity’ that is already doing this, launched sometime in Nov. It allows you to see your timeline, your friend’s timeline and compare them. You can also add movies, images etc.

why so cynical? i can see the value in this - but it does sound very much like a start-up called Miomi.com that was featured on techcrunch UK a while back - see

WTF is with these companies being in ‘private beta’. It’s such a web 2.0 cliche now. They have no solid app, no revenue, and idiots invest in them. How stupid can someone be? If that’s not yet another example of the 2nd bubble then I’ll be damned.

AOL has something like that already with circavie.com which is quite well done. I guess at some point Tumblr will do that too

#3 > Assuming this startup is still around when that child grows up.

So true! I doubt these folks will be around by the end of 2008.

Seems like a nifty idea, though I think services like Facebook are better positioned to take advantage of this idea.

#3, #4…right on the money. the only people who ever contributed to any of these sites in any case were the very-leading edge of valley obsessive early adopters…the rest of the world will never hear of these flameouts so no one in the wild will be harmed when the disks stop spinning.

i’m warming up for a great deadpool-fest in 2008, which i am going to label the ragnarok of the web2 startups. folks we are in recession-land…if your startup has not been bought by now, you missed the boat!

#3 - Erick…lol! Hey! You can’t knock a company on your own site!!

Glad you saw this “minor” flaw…I’d be more comfortable storing long-term with a Microsoft, Google, Yahoo.

“When he grows up and takes control over his own timeline, he will have a timeline of tagged material from his childhood.”

Assuming this startup is still around when that child grows up.

And when Google adds this type of feature (when there are significant users interested) with googlevid/youtube, picasa, opensocial, android, googlemaps, etc., these ppl will cry. I guess a yahoo acquisition isnt a horrible exit.
