NOW HIRING: GUEST BLOGGERS – DRIVE TRAFFIC TO YOUR BLOGS!

Here’s how this works.

I want everyone reading this to send me their very best blog posts. If the post is something I think I’d like to publish, I will send you an email, and let you know when I will be publishing it.

I will of course provide a byline for you to mention your blog. On top of that, I will add you to my blogroll. On top of that I will give you a full-fledged graphic intense Blog Review, worth at least $40.

If I decide NOT to use your blog – I will STILL write up a 1-paragraph review of your blog(and post it with 3-5 other mini-reviews).

This blog is about to break the 100 subscribers mark. I have 1400 followers on twitter, and 600 friends on friendfeed who will see each post. This blog gets 1000 hits per day(at least it has been for the past 2 weeks.) My alexa ranking hasn’t caught up since the traffic is new, but it will catch up, very quick.

Main Criteria of Blog Posts:

1. Must be along the theme of this blog, which is technology, blogging, making money online, gadgets, social networks, twitter, social media, etc…

2. The blog post must have never been posted else where.

This is a very good way to gain some added exposure, and begin building your brand.

Please send all entries to: patrickwcurl at gmail dot com.

Update & Clarification: I am looking for the best of the best posts – they need to never have been published elsewhere, and if I choose not to use your post – I will let you know, and you can post them on your blog, and I will link to all of the Honorable Mentions.

Update: I forgot what year it is, updated 2007 to 2008 in title.  

Life stream, I believe it was facebook who first came up with the idea.

Now most social networks have it built in. Twitter, Pownce, Jaiku, simply are nothing more than a lifestream.

Friendfeed and Socialthing both aggregate all of your feeds, and lifestreams.

Friend feed recently announced the launch of an API which you can read about here, here, and here.

Mashable did a good write up today listing 8 life streaming sites.

Here’s the list:

1. Correlate.us - has cool graphing features regarding your life stream.
2. Friendfeed - Need I say more? Most talked about aggregator, combines most of your social networks, blogs, lifestreams into one.
3. Iminta.com - currently in private beta, but offers 26 services. You can read a more detailed review here.
4. Life2Front.com – has the goal of pushing virtually more content to your feed, than any other service out there. Currently in private beta.
5. LiveZuu.com - Lifestreaming, with a focus on sleekness and prettified designs.
6. Mybloglog.com – This has been a community player for a long time, and has recently added lifestreaming.
7. OneSwirl.com – Same as the rest, with the feel of an rss reader, and an event calendar.
8. Profilactic.com – Supports over 150 different services that you can import from, letting your friends, and colleagues no virtually everything you could possibly do online…
9. Socialthing.com – Currently in private beta, it’s goal is to allow you to bring your friends with you, wherever you go onto any network.

Right now it seems the two biggest competitors are Friendfeed and SocialThing, Friendfeed seems on top for now though because they are always adding new features, and their launch of an api will only make the service better, where as Social thing, is getting in the game a little later, and has a lot to catch up on.
