Why Facebook Geo-Targetting Could Mean The End Of The World 10 Sep 2010

Checking in, location reporting, geo-status updating - call it what you like, but sharing your location with the world has become one of the most popular movements to hit social networking in recent times. Facebook is the latest application to join the party, allowing users to include their location with their status updates. "Places," as it is called, is nothing new (services like Foursquare have been allowing users to advertise where they are for quite some time now), but it does raise some interesting privacy concerns. Since users share everything about their identity and personal lives with Facebook, just how far could Places plunge us into an Orwellian dystopia where "Big Mark is always watching?"

Reserve Your Name At About.Me 10 Sep 2010

Early this year we wrote about Pumkpinhead, the working name for new startup About.me being created by repeat entrepreneurs/investors Tony Conrad and Tim Young. We didnt know much about the startup except that it had top angel investors involved: Ron Conway, AOL Ventures, Scott Kurnit, Founders Collective, Radar Partners (Doug Mackenzie & Kevin Compton) and David Mahoney. Freestyle Capital has also invested since then. The company is still in stealth, but theyve given out a few beta accounts to friends and advisors, they say. Part of the product is a personal profile page that points people to your content around the Internet, allowing you to pull all this information together to build a single online identity. So these beta users are creating very noticeable splash pages. Examples: Founder Tony Conrad, AOL CEO Tim Armstrong, Typekit founder Jeffrey Veen and author Ellen Hopkins. You can see my About.me page here. Theres a lot more to the product on the back end to help users understand how many people see your profile, where theyre coming from and what they do on your page. You cant sign up for it just yet, but you can reserve your username. Over the last couple of years weve all learned the importance of securing your name on services like Twitter and Facebook. If this seems like a product youll use, you will want to grab your name now. Im pretty stoked I got /Mike myself. Just go to About.me and type in your email and the username you want. If it confirms the name is yours. If not its already taken or reserved. Just about everything is wide open right now.
