1. Profilactic (which sounds like a medicine to me) is a recent favorite of mine and supports a number of social networks like Facebook, LinkedIn, Shelfari, with the ability to add more than one account for the same site. At its core, Profilactic does two things: it displays your personal lifestream, which consists of your social networking activity, and a group lifestream from your friends. What it does, it does well. There’s also the option to create clippings – bits and pieces of information from the web; but this option is not really connected to the rest of the features on the site.
2. GizaPage is my second favorite. This service helps consumers and brands optimize their social media outreach by aggregating and serving their many profiles side by side on one webpage and under their own domain. It is wild! They give you a clean simple site where you can input all your social networks and get a good look at what is going on. The best part is that this service will analyze the traffic on your social media hub with all sorts of cool statistics to gawk over.
3. Naymz is not so much an organizer but helps in that the service actively monitor certain sites for mention of your name. Naymz also actively promotes your profile by trying to make it more visible on Google. It also supports the usual crowd – Facebook, Myspace, etc.
4. SocialURL helps you organize your online identity and get back in touch with all of your friends and classmates. It’s a unified profile with support for photo galleries and videos, as well as a central portal with links pointing out to all your other social network profiles. It’s all spiced up with lots of additional features, like on-site email, reminders and bookmarks. Last time I checked, there were 19341 SocialURLs and counting…
5. Second Brain takes a radically different approach to aggregation than other apps on this list. You organize your data – this includes data from your social network profiles, like Flickr photos or YouTube videos – into collections. A collection is basically a bunch of links, photos, or other bits and pieces of data thrown onto a dashboard; you can create your own collections or explore what others have collected. They say “Secondbrain is a service that makes it easy to save bookmarks of articles, blog posts, videos and photos that you find online to a centralized source. Use Secondbrain to save bookmarks to your profile, share updates with your subscribers and friends, and discover new content in your network.” Try it out. it only take 10 seconds to sign up.

All of these services will help in your quest to be a little more organized in your life online and let’s face it – they all do the same thing. However, each of them have something they do differently as well. Something you may like, and something you may not like. Take a look at them all. They all strive to keep your online social life more organized and that is something many of us need these days. There are, of course, a few I am missing, so please share some that I missed and/or your favorite.
