Everyone seems to be tweaking the way you can see what someone is up to online.

MyBlogLog has just changed its pages so that you can see all the updates from your contacts to any of the social network services out there. It seems to be in flux a little bit right now. When I checked a little while ago, it didn’t show any updates from my neighborhood. Now it is showing a lot.

One problem is that it is showing tweets from friends of friends that have added their Twitter page into MyBlogLog. As an example, at this moment, the most recent buzz in my neighborhood is a tweet from tombarrett to techiebreaker showing up in Alexdc’s twitter feed. Likewise, if you look at my feed, you’ll see the most recent update being a message from noneck to ahoppin. I’ve changed my Twitter feed to only show my own tweets instead of all the tweets from all my friends.

Even by doing that, I still get duplication. When I send a picture from Second Life via Bloghud to Flickr, it also shows up as a tweet on twitter. This is similar to problems I ran into Jaiku quite a while ago. Jaiku never really caught my attention, but since MyBlogLog incorporates into a bigger picture of who is reading whose blogs, it is much more compelling. Supposedly BlogCatalog is going to add some similar features soon.

Spock also aggregates news from different sources. I’ve gone out and tweaked the setting there and it looks like they are doing a nice job of it. Then, today, all my friends started showing up on friendfeed, yet another entry in the personal information aggregation space. Of course some of them provide RSS feeds so we can start feeding one into another.
