This is just another Profile Aggregator AKA "Life-Stream" product like Profilactic or something...Lukup--a product I'm VP of Marketing for--does all that but give you actual interactivity. It provides the "Write Once, Read Everywhere" feature, where if you upload a video, it puts it on Vimeo, Youtube, and a bunch of Video Sites all at once (kind of like Tube-Mogul). But it does this with everything (pictures, bookmarks, etc). And moreover, it's a product that we provide to businesses via an API for free so long as they put data from their own network or service into the system.
