OH Dat’s Nice: Sweetcron

I ran accross Sweetcron the other day while kicking around the internet and it is really cool. It is a online life streaming software that allows you to aggregate your own personal web content in one place. So if you have a blog, use twitter or any other online service that generates a feed, you can feed it into your Sweetcron site to create an up to date time line of all of your online activities.

I took the opportunity today to try it out and install it on http://www.ohdatsnice.com. Instillation was super simple and themeing the content for a personalized took no time at all…I currently only have it hooked up to my blog, but their api makes it super simple to customize the interface and the content. It does take a little knowledge of PHP/HTML/CSS but if you are a web designer or dev guy, you will see that it is cake to set up and get going and to tell you the truth they make it really easy for the weekend warrior blogger to figure it out too.

Out of the box it pulls your entire feed content but in my example you see that I pulled out all the content and only left the title of the post and the posting date, with the blocks linking back to my articles…so you could use this software to suplement your current blogs etc…

All in all, I would recommend Sweetcron to anyone looking to keep all of their online activity in one place and I really think that this concept of lifestreaming is really going to take off…

Here is another example of a Sweetcron based site: http://www.yongfook.com
