Profilactic Almost Ready For Unveiling . . .

October 30th, 2006 Davis Posted in Web 2.0 |

One of my favorite bloggers on the net, Smorty71, has been working on a secret web 2.0 application called Profilactic for sometime now and it’s almost ready to go primetime. I first heard about it 6 months ago when he briefly mentioned that he was cooking something up, but since then it’s been hidden in a veil of secrecy.

On Friday, Smorty emailed me to announce that the site was almost ready to go live and invited me to check out the upcoming beta for the site. He’s also letting people register to get on the beta list and I’d recommend at least checking it out even though I haven’t seen it yet.

Once it does launch I’ll give it a more thorough review, but essentially Smorty has been trying to come up with a way for people to be able to track all of the conversations that they have around the net into a centralized place. Think of it as an RSS for all of the comments that you leave, the photos that you visit and the videos that you share. By taking advantage of the feeds that these sites have, Smorty is hoping to create an easier way for people to manage their online identies across various platforms. As someone who is registered with at least 20 different web 2.0 sites, I could really see the benefits of something like this and will be interested in checking it out once the site launches.

On his blog, Smorty is saying that it will be out in the Fall, so I’m going to give him about 2 more days before demanding now, now, now, but in the meantime I’m sure that he is hard at work getting ready for the launch.
