Over the past month I have been trying to find a good use for social networking web apps like Twitter, Identi.ca, Facebook, et al. They have to have a purpose; there must be a good use for them. I think I have finally found a decent use for them, although ironically it requires one last social networking plugin – Lifestream. Lifestream basically aggregates all of the social networking updates that I make throughout the day and displays them in one plays in chronological order. In other words, if you visit my lifestream you can basically see everything I have found important enough to do that day in the social networking realm. I have posted my Lifestream here on my blog. My goal is thus to create one (yes, just one) simple place where anyone can go and find all of the content I have posted, shared, or otherwise interacted with during the day.  At the same time I am still participating in the social networking communities.  Another thumbs up to the open source community.
