An excellent idea

Make yourself easy to find
Build a YASN-Roll. A list of links to your profiles on all the other "Yet Another Social Network" platforms where you have an account.
1) Add to and update the Sites.otherProfiles section of https://aboutme.google.com
It's not clear yet if Google Profiles and AboutMe will survive the G+Sunset but it's possible. In the mean time, it's a key way of finding people's profiles on other systems.
2) If you have a key blog or a personal website with it's own domain, set up an about page or sidebar containing a list of all your profiles on other sites. If you have control over the HTML put in the microformats like this.
$profilePlatformName There are systems out there (maybe) that can recognise circular rel="me" references and use them to validate identity.
3) Put links to your YASN-Roll as the first entry in the About Profile section on each platform. Add it to email signatures, business cards and such like.
Yep, excellent idea. Thanks for the share Andrew Hatchett
ReplyDeleteGood idea. But, still, I feel fragmented.

ReplyDeleteZara, we all do... and it will take some time to pull ourselves together. :)
Andrew Hatchett Absolutely! G+ has been my home.
ReplyDeleteWe somehow have to find another way Zara Altair I feel the same fragmentation.
