Playing with MyLifeBrand

mylifebrand-logo.gifUpdate, June 13, 2007: After playing around with the site a bit more, I discovered that you can add more than three social networking sites into your profile.

In last week’s Friday Five I pointed to a TechCrunch review of MyLifeBrand, a social networking utility (and yet another social network, in and of itself) that lets users aggregate social networking memberships and navigate between them from a single place. I was intrigued, so I applied for membership in MyLifeBrand Alpha and to my surprise was immediately accepted.

So far, all I’ve done with the site is create the space where I can access my top three four social networks (Facebook, MyRagan, and LinkedIn and MySpace). This could be a good solution for anyone managing multiple social networks. The Alpha version only allows you to place up to three several social networks on a page, and you have to go to the “snapshot” view to input and view them.

Introducing Facebook Polls

Facebook Polls is the latest addition to this much-buzzed-about social networking site. But the polls aren’t free. As TechCrunch reports:

Facebook charges you a variable amount based on how quickly you want results. You tell Facebook how many results you want and how much you are wiling to pay per result. The more you offer, the more quickly results are returned to you. Prices currently range from $.10 to $1.00 per data point, plus an initial $5 insertion fee. Facebook will estimate the completion time for the poll based on how much you bid.
