Great, you’re all over the internet– LinkedIn, Flickr, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, personal blog, etc. But your web presence is scattered, like bird seed at a wedding. Maybe you need a way to aggregate all the places your brand hangs out and put them in one place so folks know where to go looking for you.
Try Extendr.com. It let’s you create your own personal brand webpage with a unique URL (http://sellsius.extendr.com/), which contains links to all your web hangouts. Give it to your friends and clients, so they know where they can connect with you.
Here’s the skinny from the extendr folks:
.extendr.com was started to solve a difficult problem with a simple solution. Joseph noticed that in our online presence we tend to make very poor introductions to our personal brand. We’ve got several email addresses (work and home), several media pages (Facebook, MySpace, a blog, etc.), but they’re typically scattered and disconnected. How do we bring all that together into a single identity? Joseph [Rueter] approached Neil, a college friend & master coding ninja, about building a web service together and .extendr.com was born.
.extendr.com’s primary function is to aid you in gathering all of your online presence (e.g. social networks, micro-sites, etc.), organize and present them in one place. It works a bit like a personal homepage, an easy storage space for your interests (links), contact info (email), blogs, and social media pages (Facebook, MySpace).
Having an .extendr.com page allows for simple introductions to your entire personal brand, consolidation of your complete web footprint, & a true extension of you in the online world.
Sounds like a great idea. I like it.
You can customize your extendr page but it’s very limited (just colors). I imagine they’ll let you add your photo, logo and page skin at some point — heck, it’s all about personal brand, right guys.
They also have a neat bookmarklet— drag it to your toolbar so when you join another social networking site (God help you), you can easily click the bookmarklet to add it to your extendr page. This works great. (You can also use it to bookmark sites to your page.)
With your own personal extendr page URL as your web footprint, you can add it to your email signature or business cards or anywhere you leave a comment.
Good luck Joe. A Sellsius Thumbs Up!
