1st impressions of Plaxo
My first impressions of Plaxo are it looks more promising then Facebook. They seem to have gone for a more LinkedIn type UI which I like.
I got an e-mail summary about what my cousin Tom Raftery has being doing online during the week. While the summary was interesting and I suppose useful It's a little scary how this could happen automatically via Plaxo. That is, I'm not connected to Tom via Plaxo but am via Facebook. I suppose Tom has some Facebook app/setting that arranges this type of connectivity?.
These social networking services seem to make alot of assumptions by default. One day I clicked on a link in a Joost e-mail to watch a Nelly Furtado video and automatically a notification was sent to my Facebook to that effect. I suppose it could have been worse (like Britney...as if ;-)). I didn't want this type of behaviour and it took a few minutes to find out how to disable it in Facebook.
