Disclaimer: I’m fully aware that this blog post is flying directly in the face of one of my other recent posts titled “Information Overload.”

I recently discovered Memolane. Still in beta mode, the app is a great idea, although I’m still trying to figure out exactly how I might use it. Basically, it allows you to add from a list of about 15 social media sites to aggregate all of your activity from those sites into a “lane” or a timeline. This timeline is what other users will see when they visit your homepage, and Memolane is nice in that it allows you to control what access you give to each of these social media apps.

I guess, for my money, the coolest feature is that in one place I can go back in time, currently as far back as the summer of 2006, and see all of my social media activity from then. Not that I have a desire to relive the past, but sometimes it can be interesting to go back and remember things that I’d completely forgotten. Now, what would be REALLY cool is if there were an option to link to Rdio and see what I was listening to a year ago.
