I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking, “Gary, we love Solitude, read your twitter, go to all your del.icio.us links, and listen to everything you do on last.fm but is there any way we can follow you just a little bit more/easier?”.
Well, gentle readers, inspired by Joe Gregorio’s Me Page, I’ve set up my own readr account.
By subscribing to/reading, my readr page you can now stalk me in one single space, with my Facebook, Myspace, Bebo, Jyte, Good Reads and more all appearing. Heck, it even aggregates all my online games of Halo 3. It even has the bonus that if I start producing content somewhere new, I can easily add it to my readr account and you automatically start seeing it. Enjoy!
(P.S. Of course I don’t believe anyone actually needs/wants this, but I am interested in this kind of aggregation for my own purposes. I think when the social graph becomes truly open, this kind of content-mulching will be very interesting.)

#Permalink: My Readr Profile, By Gary Fleming
Hmm, I see you’re mostly playing online games.
Have you tried Dopplr? Quite a nice way of keeping your friends abreast of your trips and hence setting up drinks when you’re down in London/I’m up in Glasgow/etc.
That’s the problem with the Halo 3 feed, it’s very noisy. You can play it for a short period of time, and it fills a lot of space.
I’m not sure about dopplr. It’s not necessarily information I want to be public. My company was one of the ones invited to the 100-company beta release though.
Screw it, I’ve signed up. My username is VKPS.

I might have to check the privacy settings on Dopplr: was quite surprised to see details of my upcoming holiday broadcast on your Readr page!
Jack: Bloody hell, that seems very wrong. My feed should not publish the details of anyone else, and I certainly don’t want to republish that. That does, bizarrely, seem to be the dopplr default. I can’t seem to see a way to switch that off. Pulling the feed from my Readr profile until I can.
