Upscoop Sifts Your Contacts

When writing about how you let your friends know what  social networks you participate in I could only tell you so much in one article. But there's more.

Including - upscoop - a service which identifies which friends are part of what network.

This puts the burden of finding you on your friends.

They - if they know about upscoop and are willing to give the program access to their friends lists - just let upscoop sift through their lists from various sources. Then upscoop provides an alphabetized list of friends links to their pages on whatever social networking sites they are registered with

Nifty? Yes. A little on the privacy-invading side?

Probably, There's a lot I don't know but it may go too far.

I think I'll stay with my practice of just showing icons with links to all my social sites for the time being, and I'll keep  a couple of aggregators running for the really nosy out there just in case.

That way you won't have to find upscoop to find me.  . . . But it was kinda nifty watching upscoop work.
