    Hey Leif,

    I don't know how valuable this is, but have you seen Unhub (http://unhub.com/)? This allows you to collect specific sites within a framework, for example, having your LinkedIn profile, blog, twitter, etc all within a "you" framework. Here's mine to see what Im talking about (http://unhub.com/lynnfredricks).

    Looks cool Lynn, thanks for telling us about that --looks like a fancier/cleaner version of FriendFeed. Can you comment on people's items though?

    Cheers, Leif

    Lynn, I looked at your unhub site and I like it. I think I will spend some time checking the unhub out. Is it easy to use?

    I have put about 5 or 6 sites on unhub and so far it seems to be ok except a couple small details. Some of the sites will keep me logged in and others I have to log in to them once in unhub. I do have a question. If you are logged in to your sites and someone goes to your unhub link does it show up as you logged in? I hope that makes sense.~Nancy

    I discovered TweetDeck a few months ago (http://www.tweetdeck.com/beta/), and though it's still in Beta, it works nicely to ease following friends and colleagues. Another app - Selective Twitter updates on Facebook. (http://apps.facebook.com/selectivetwitter/) - so only what you tag goes on your FB profile or pages. -- @ReatlyLee

    Thanks Lee for the facebook info, this one is new to me.

    Unhub is really easy - it really just aggregates other stuff you already have there.

    Ive been playing with Twine (http://www.twine.com/) which appears as another sort of StumbleUpon type site - except its got a lot cleaner an interface and lets you add other kinds of items - it does "collection" better than StumbleUpon.

    What is the best tool for publishing articles to multiple sites? Thanks in advance to anyone who answers.

    One thing I love is retagger - it lets me have a profile with all my links in one place (including the ones I would otherwise probably forget about!)

    And Terra Vita - if you use Firefox, try an ScribeFire. I just press F8 and it pops open a window so I can post anything to any of my blogs. Very useful.

    The other I've tried is Windows Live Writer, also good, but a standalone program and it doesn't handle all blogs.
