If you missed it, there’s a great article in Search Engine Journal about one of Google’s latest acquisitions called “ What’s Next in Social Media For Google? SocialStream.”
Here’s a quote –>
* Initial Task: Rethink and reinvent online social networking
* Refined Focus: Discover the user needs related to social networking and explore how a unified social network service can enhance their experience.
* Prototype Goal: Create a system for users to seamlessly share, view, and respond to many types of social content across multiple networks.
SocialStream allows users to interconnect content from different social networks into one
This would be a dream application for me if they truly got it right. I have several places where I attempt to keep everything integrated, but I don’t always have the best of luck when there are an explosion of tools over a short period of time. It’ll be interesting to see how they plan to deal with the issue of scale.
