Since we all use one mail email account most of the time, it makes sense to create a detailed profile once and never have to fill out forms anywhere. I guess Google is trying to do the same with our gmail accounts. I mean, most of the social networking sites can import address books from the majors, so why can't they import temporary profile info using my gmail login ID? Am I making sense?

But we would not need them if we could chat with someone on MSN using GTalk directly. Jabber is a step in that direction, but nothing will move until it is adopted by multiple providers.

I don't use any social network regularly cause I only know a few people on each. There needs to be a way to consolidate and use these things together. Kinda like what Adium or Trillian does for IM there should be something for social networking sites. I couldn’t agree more.
