Addictomatic: Vanity Search Online
May 12th, 2008 Posted in Web
Addict-o-matic is a great little tool that just popped up on my radar. Geeks are Sexy refers to it as a tool to help “perform ego searches online.” In reality, it searches popular services like technorati, bloglines, digg, flickr, google, delicious, twitter, wordpress and yahoo for whatever it is that you’re looking for. In essence, it gives you a snapshot of what the internet as a whole has to say about your search term.
For example: Searching Angus Gastle will net you my Youtube account, some recent posts thanks to wordpress and yahoo and my affiliations with both The Bottom Rung and the fruits of imagination. It’s great for not just aggregating text but also image and video content as well from flickr and youtube.
Helpful resource, even if you only use it to google yourself…
