Share All (Find All) On Slifeshare

"Download Slife and start streaming all your favorite music, websites and feeds to your Slifeshare!"

Wait a second? Is this just a form of voluntary Spyware?

I don't know, but what I do know is Slifeshare is a new online community that allows its users to download software that will track and share everything (stopping just short of keystrokes) that they do on their computers. Apparently, people not only don't mind if the government is watching their every move, they don't care if strangers across the globe are either. After launching a little less than a week ago, people are already really getting into it. Don't believe me? Check out the Mashable article: Slifeshare Scares the Sh*t Out of Me.


While it seems like Slifeshare's main users are still confined to a pretty niche audience, just look at a profile. Regardless of how into sharing this guy is, it's incredible that you and I can look at the applications used (and when), websites most visited, RSS feeds most read, songs most listened to, and more; all of a complete stranger!

The idea behind the concept is that users can find people with similar habits and tastes to network with. However, I'm not really sure how much this service (especially when this extensive) really benefits the Average Joe. What I can see, however, is its advantages for marketing researchers. Depending on what types of search features are developed as Slifeshare grows, this could tell corporations a lot about people in general and help them target more effectively than ever imagined. Best of all--data accuracy. Obviously, the numbers in Slifeshare don't lie.

The only problem? It's only for Macs. We'll see if that changes.
