Curious about the name? Rather close to Spoke.com, especially since both are valley companies.

Seems like a great aggregator of social sites…

You can change the color scheme in your account settings if the blue is making you sick. They have 6 theme options. Personally, I don’t think it’s that overwhelming, but blue is my favorite color.

Haha. Cool. Glad that I could help you, Børge.

I’m currently using it as a user on Identoo.com, but my boyfriend also installed it on his own server. I love the fact that you can also use it from outside and don’t need an account to see the social stream.

"I’ve heard that there is something like this that you can actually install on your own server, and which is open source." @borge: Maybe you mean NoseRub by Dirk Olbertz. It's open source and you can install it on your own server.

Jason and Kee, sorry about the wait. We are not trying to artificially limit registrations. The message is an automatic message from our system, indicating that it cannot take any more work.

It was originally intended as some sort of error message. I guess it has becomes the “norm” now since 5000+ people have already seen that page.

Our system has been running at 100% capacity every single minute since the Techcrunch story. Every time the system dips to 90%, new users will sign up and fill up the queue within minutes. Please be patient. The traffic spike should calm down after a few days.

..so when will you start to track all user behaviour not just social networks? it souds like the framework is already in place, you just need turn the ‘big brotha’ switch on..

Hell, even a day later you still can’t sign up. I’d like to check it out, but honestly if I can’t get in now I’ll most likely end up forgetting about it.

Sounds good, didnt work when i tried to sign up so i was wondering…

Plaxo Plus has a feature where you can hook up feeds from social sites, Spokeo does the same thing rite?

n locamigos.com lets you search for your friends who are already on these social sites…

Is Spokeo in between these two?
