Here’s an idea for an unintended (nevermind) use of whosi: create groups and add feeds to them. I created a “name” called “Film Scholars” and added the trusty Dr Mabuse’s Kaleidoscope site. I was going to add everyone else in my film blogroll, but I didn’t because I’m lazy and I want to see what other people add. What I’m thinking is that if people add sites to the group, we could have a huge, collaboratively-built RSS feed of blogs of film scholars. One could also create groups for anything this way.
A few more notes about whoisi. I’m still a little creeped out but intrigued by the concept. I looked at the “About” section, which points out some interesting things, like the fact that it is cookie-based, so you don’t have to log in to follow people. It is collaborative, like a wiki + and RSS feed. And he uses the word “frak.” There’s some definite potential here.

I would love to expand on how groups work. The aliases stuff is there to encourage that that I think that we could do a lot more with it.
well I don’t understand how whosi works. I looked up “erik marshall” and you’re not even there, so what’s the point.
That’s the thing, see. It’s all user generated, so you can add me if you want, and add sites that you know belong to me. I haven’t added myself, nor has anyone else, so nothing comes up. (I just ask that nobody outs me on my super-secret anonymous blog, thanks).
