Social Media Smorgasbord: Flavors.me
I intended to research all of newfangled features of Adobe’s CS5 release this week to write a super informative post for those considering the upgrade, but instead I found something cooler. It’s called Flavors.me.
Basically it’s a social media aggregator, at least that’s how I see it. You have to experience it to see the beauty of the Flavors.me service. You can easily create a beautiful site, without any knowledge of web programming. Flavors.me compiles all of your favorite social media feeds and let’s you upload your own huge background photo to boot.
The developers, Hii Def Inc., describes the service best:
Flavors.me allows anyone to create an elegant website using personal content from around the Internet. It automatically organizes all kinds of information – Posterous blog posts, Twitter status updates, YouTube videos, Last.fm music listening habits, Flickr photos, LinkedIn resume details and more – into a constantly growing, interactive visual montage that is ideal for personal homepages, lifestreaming, digital business cards, splash and microsites, celebrity fan pages, brand marketing – and everything in between.
I’m most impressed by the ingenuity of the service. Flavors is simply pulling already created content from all of the most popular social media sites. The great thing is that it compiles them into a beautiful and simple to use interface. This seems like the next step in the social media evolution, doesn’t it?
I experimented with the service and created a free site (the paid service is $20/year) and included Reddoor’s blog and twitter feed. Check it out and tell us what you think?

Check it out, and make a site of your own. We’d love to see what you come up with. Send your Flavors.me site to sales @ RedByReddoor.com
Lastly, here’s a 3-minute video that shows the interface with the Flavors.me service:
Here’s a sampling of what your Flavors.me site can look like (I have no idea what these people are about, they did have interesting sites). Check out the Directory.
You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.
Cool site. Hey, just so you know, some day I’m going to have money, and I’m going to pay you to do stuff. Thanks in advance.
Mark, well then, we’re excited to work with you too.
