Social Graph

I've been playing with FriendFeed the last couple of days after seeing posts from folks like Scoble. I've long discussed the need for the "great Web 2.0 presence aggregator". It's something I've considered writing it, although I've never had the time nor the web design skills (I can do functional, just not pretty). Now that I've played with it it's about 75% of what I envisioned.

The system provides a clean interface for seeing all the activity of your friends in one place. This is more people centric, so a person can have any number of web 2.0 services attached to his account which are presented coherently and logically.

OK, the first draft of my Social Graph Page is up. It's rather rudimentary. I'll be pulling data out of my other socnets and inputting them into the database in the next couple of days.

Right now it's only generating XFN compatible links... soon I'll have an FOAF file generated as well. Once I'm happy with it I'll post the code for the module.

I'm still importing contacts, so don't feel slighted if you're not on there (if you want to be, feel free to email me).

OK... after a bunch of waiting I have decided to embrace the semantic web and document my social graph. After a ton of debating I have decided to use both XFN and FOAF. There are a number of reasons for this.
