An important conversation

Brian Daniel Eisenberg — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 06:27:40 +0000

This is an extremely important discussion in my opinion that will ultimately shape the future of social media and who is able to monetize and leverage the power of the social graph.

Whoisi is a nice shiny new aggregator thingamajiggr

I highly recommend you go to http://whoisi.com and type in your name, handle, whatever you use online as your username. If nothing comes back, create a new entry for yourself. I suggest you use your real name. you can add your aliases, alter egos, and imaginary friends later.

Then start searching for friends. If your friends aren't on there yet, you can fill in their details for them. It's like that whole community driven wikipedia-like model thingy.

Here are links to the origins of Whoisi. Here's a blog post that explains things in a lot more detail. All in all, I'd say this is some very nice new socnet tech. I approve.

A time for exploration

Brian Daniel Eisenberg — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 00:18:37 +0000

Welcome to the next phase in the exploration of some ideas that I and several others had just over a year ago. This is one of many new sites we will be bringing online in the coming weeks, and hopefully months. Hold on tight, things could get a little crazy again. We're going to try and build a couple of the engines I've so desperately wanted to code up and deploy to the cloud.

Please do keep in mind that I am only able to devote a very limited amount of my precious time to exploring these ideas for now, as I have a full time job in the enterprise software industry where I work as a Senior Systems Engineer for Software AG Inc., and also own/manage Eastlake Associates LLC, a commercial property management business in Seattle, WA.

Major props to @kibmcz, my stealth coding ninja from parts way up north for helping pull this stuff all together so quickly. Be sure to check out KComputer Zone for all the meta. Special thanks to Chris Pirillo for a truly stellar WordPress theme. Well done! Bravo.

Now that I've got this nifty new WordPress blog, I will be retiring (not deleting) my old blog which I recently changed from http://bdeseattle.blogspot.com to infinitelymeta.blogspot.com. Please also be sure to follow me on Friendfeed and Twitter, as they are where you can figure out all the other socnets I frequent.

And now the fun continues.

Changed My Friendfeed & Twitter handles

Brian Daniel Eisenberg — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 03:09:11 +0000

OK. Today, I'm deploying my new personal brand and retrofitting my online presence across socnets to reflect these changes. In 2007, I was pplpwrd, now here in 2008, I'm Infinitely Meta. So please come find me on the backchannels on socnets. Here are the ones that matter most:

http://friendfeed.com/infinitelymeta (same account as before, just renamed)

http://twitter.com/infinitelymeta (same account as before, just renamed)

That is all.
