Hill+Knowlton Strategies

I’ve been wondering how long it would take for a social media guru to not only create a site that could incorporate all your social networking profiles into one profile but also incorporate feeds of you and your friends on your profile!  I’ve become a Facebook addict and love seeing who is doing what on the social corner. Never mind my MySpace profile, Flickr account with all my ‘forget-me-not’ photos, my business network, a definite must on LinkedIn, it goes on and on and on…

It seems the answer thus far is Wink – The people search engine! Wink specifically targets their search engine to find individual people who are active web and social network users. A few others such as 8hands, ProfileFly, and Tabber.

The Wink feeds pull in information about your friends from del.icio.us, Twitter, which has recently been added to Wink’s search tools, Flickr, Jaiku, MySpace, Facebook, Wordpress and more. You can find more on the subject on Mashable.

There is still a long way to go before it becomes 100% integrated, as I’m still playing with it and it’s not exactly where it should be. However I do feel it’s a good step in the right direction.  I look forward to seeing what happens next.  Below is a widget from Wink which will be placed on all my profiles shortly…
