Wanted to let everyone know that we have updated our support for Bebo in Profilactic. Your Bebo blog will now import into your Profilactic lifestream. Unfortunately, Bebo doesn't support RSS for other content like Photos. However, if when they do, we'll add that, too.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Profilactic has added support for Plurk. With all of the problems that Twitter has been having, we figured it doesn't hurt to support other services that display your current status.

Thanks to Graham Smith for suggesting it.

This brings the total number of sites that Profilactic supports to 183. Of course, you can still add unlimited custom sites.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Profilactic has added support for Netvibes. Honestly, I already thought we supported Netvibes, but it turns out we didn't. When you support 182 sites, you can lose track, I guess.

Thanks to Felix Fischer for reminding us about Netvibes support and then mentioning that FriendFeed supports it just to make sure we got the message :)

This brings the total number of sites that Profilactic supports to 182. Of course, you can still add unlimited custom sites.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Profilactic has added support for TwitPic.

This brings the total number of sites that Profilactic supports to 181. Of course, you can still add unlimited custom sites.

As we mentioned earlier, we used 99designs.com to "crowdsource" a logo for our LLC Aggregated Media. We're in the process of raising money for Aggregated Media, so we need a better logo than the one we were using.

After a week, we ended up with over 60 designs from a bunch of talented designers. We ended up narrowing it down to 5 final designs before choosing the logo below:



The logo was designed by Ink who has done a lot of great logos through 99designs.com.

We're in the process of building out our Aggregated Media site; however, you can see the logo in action on our placeholder page.

As you may or may not know, Profilactic.com is a prototype of the larger social media platform we are creating with our LLC Aggregated Media.

We are in desperate need of a logo for AM, so we decided to go the crowdsourcing route and launch a design contest at 99designs.com.

Please take a look at the entries and let us know what you think. Of course, you can also feel free to whip up a badass logo of your own and submit it.

The contest runs through May 22nd.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Profilactic has added support for kirtsy and iReport.

This brings the total number of sites that Profilactic supports to 180. Of course, you can still add unlimited custom sites.

We've been working on Profilactic for approximately two years now. When we first got started, there was no such thing as "lifestreaming" or "social media aggregation." In fact, the first term/buzzword I remember getting thrown around was Marc Canter's use of "digital lifestyle aggregator."

We chose to call our aggregation feature a "mashup" because we were taking all of these various feeds and mashing them together. Clever, huh?

Anyway, fast forward two years. "Lifestreaming" has become the accepted term for what we called "mashups." In order to avoid confusion in what we're offering, we have changed our "mashups" to "lifestreams." Obviously not Earth-shattering news; however, I wanted to give a little background on where the original name came from and why we changed it.

Right now, we are still using "mashup" in our URLs. Over time, we will be changing those to "lifestream." Of course, when we make that change, we will make sure we set up redirects so that all of the old "mashup" links will still work.

So what do you think? Are we total sellouts for adopting the latest buzzword? Or does it clarify what we're offering? Leave a comment and let us know.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Profilactic has added support for the new location-based social network brightkite.

This brings the total number of sites that Profilactic supports to 178. Of course, you can still add unlimited custom sites.
