I recently found a website called Storytlr.  It’s a lifestreaming service similar to soup.io, Sweetcron and to a lesser extent FriendFeed - it aggregates your blog posts, Flickr pictures, tweets etc. into one stream.

Like soup.io, Storytlr lets you set up a DNS CNAME to point to your lifestream from your domain, so mine is here.

What makes Storytlr different is that it has the concept of “stories” – for example you could group a blog post, some tweets and some flickr pictures together as a story to describe a vacation you had.  It’s an interesting twist, but I’m not sure I’d use it – I’m probably more likely to just write a blog post about my vacation, link the pictures and leave the tweets out.

I recently heard about a website called Soup from Andy DeSoto.

Apparently it’s an aggregation service like FriendFeed, Socialthing or Swurl.

To be honest it’s got a few problems – it doesn’t refresh automatically when new content is available and doesn’t even notify you so you can refresh it.

It does have a cool page designer so you can lay your page out the way you want it.  Even better, you can use your own subdomain to redirect to it – check my page out here.

Also it has an infinite scrollbar so you can just keep scrolling back in time without refreshing or changing  pages, which is nice.
