About.Me- New Service dedicated to create your own profile

A sneak peek inside the About.me social site which is still in beta testing. This site will allow a one place online profile to be present on the internet. Here are some of the features it will have.

Few days back, a team of nine people designed a site for themselves. They found it tough pulling all social/online accounts and sites to a page. So they created about.me, a site to show off one in all online profile.

Later-on they decided to make it public. At present, public registrations are locked and its by invite only.

Features :

  • Create a personal dynamic splash page with a very easy to use administration.
  • Drag and Drop Administrator interface.
  • Custom Background, like Twitter.
  • Add multiple social networks, along with websites and RSS.
  • Get detailed statistics of your visitors like their about.me profile (if they have), their country, time of visit and whatever they do with your profile.
  • It also offers to measure your global reach counting up your Facebook friends and twitter followers.

I have got an invite there and thought to share with you an alpha sneak preview. It’s not yet publicly released , yet you can reserve a username down there.

So what can we expect inside About.me ?

  • Select the backgrounds given or you can even upload your own. Select the desired settings and layout.

  • Add your Biography or whatever you want to introduce yourself.

  • Adjust Colors of Header Text, Name, Opacity etc.

  • I can add Social-Networks, Sites, Feeds etc to my profile.

  • I can also see statistics of visits to my profile.

  • Another feature also allows promoting your About.me page which can be used by professionals to advertise services.

I hope that you have enjoyed the post. If you are already registered with about.me, then please let me know your views or suggestions through the comments below.
