Over the past few years, we’ve all amassed an embarrassingly large collection of personal websites and messenger accounts across the internet, be it social networks, AIM, bookmarking sites, Gchat, media-sharing galleries, etc. If you’re looking for a way to organize all your sites in a manner that makes it easy for your friends and acquaintances to view your profiles and contact you via one of your several messaging services, check out MeVu.
MeVu is a new contact information aggregating service which lets you list all of your contact information and websites in one spot. To use MeVu, sign up for an account and enter in your IM handles (Gchat, AIM, Yahoo! Messenger, etc). Then you can enter in the URLs for all your personal pages. All categories are entered in manually, so no matter what bookmarking site, social network, or media-storage site you use, you can post it on MeVu. For example, your categories could be “Photo sites”, “My Social Networks”, “Social Bookmarking”, etc. When you’re done aggregating all your information, you can embed your MeVu URL on any site you like by choosing one of MeVu’s buttons, and copy-pasting the HTML code from the text area onto your own page.
MeVu.com In Their Own Words
“FaceBook, Myspace, Linkedin, Del.ici.ous, YouTube, Blogger, Digg, Flickr, forum profiles, your own websites…people have so many web presences these days. Just how do you tell your friends, in one place, where on the net you live? This is the single purpose of MeVu. Please take a look, and then create your own free page”.
Why MeVu.com It Might Be A Killer
Unlike some other networks that let you list links to your websites, MeVu doesn’t restrict you to a pre-determined list of categories. You get to enter them in manually. So even if you use some really underground sites, you’ll be able to enter in your URL anyway. The embeddable widget lets your acquaintances easily access your MeVu page and see what other sites you’re using and what messenger services they can use to contact you.
Some Questions About MeVu.com
How can you see which of your acquaintances are already using this service without having to first pay a visit to one of their websites? It would also be great if MeVu could provide an RSS feed, letting you know automatically which of your friends have updated their info. Going beyond that one step further, is there any way that MeVu could access each of your sites individually to determine if you have updated them recently, and then let your contacts know?
