Hello,
I wonder if we would see a sort of a social network aggregator developed in the near future. A tool to integrate all our networks..
Today, we can aggregate all the news, blogs, etc. we need using an RSS reader. We can also aggregate all the content that we create on different platforms in one place - using jaiku.com, so that it is easier for others to follow everything we do online.
Would that be possible to somehow integrate all our online social networks? Is there a need for it?

Now for the scholarly types, this community seems to be a bit more fragmented. I know many of these people who have accounts on myspace and even friendster, in addition to Facebook. I personally have an inactive friendster account that never ceases to amaze me when I get notices that someone actually was there. These are slowly dribbling off.
there are at least a few people from aoir that i've found on:
tribe friendster facebook myspace linkedin ryze orkut [a site i've forgotten the name of...]
and probably a significant number of other sites that i don't know about.
I have friends from several different demographics on each of them.
When folks try to compress a site into "teens go here" and "latinos mostly go here", they generally miss out on the fact that these sites are HUGE - so huge that there is a broad spectrum of behavior present on ALL of them. Surface-level characterizations are great, yes, but there's a lot of nuance in people's behaviors and networking patterns - that is easily missed.
