Pipped at the post

You know how sometimes you come up with a really great idea?  One that you’re sure will make you “a millionaire by this time next year”?  Well that happened to me a few weeks back.

Hang on, I thought to myself whilst writing my econsultancy presentation on content targeting.  Wouldn’t it be great if on pulling out my final slide, instead of having a long and unwieldy list of all my social profiles for viewers to note down, I could just have a single page url where everything was amalgamated?  It could be a really simple page.  Content managed and aesthetically pleasing, it would be a doddle to add new social feeds as and when you signed up to them.  This is it, I thought.  This is the big one.

Then along came about bloody me.  About.me does everything I was planning, and to be fair, they’ve probably done a far better job that I ever could have.  Swines.  So, in the spirit of fair play here’s a plug for their tool.  It really is a great bit of kit.  So good in face that I’ve even signed up myself at about.me/webconsultancy.

Now, who’s in the market for this great new collaboration tool I’ve just invented?  I’m going to call it an ‘Internet’.
