This is where iStalkr comes in. iStalkr collects your feeds from all around the net and puts them into one handy page, which in turn has a feed that others can follow (although the feed links back to the entry on iStalkr as opposed to the original source). In addition, you can have your very own ‘Stalkrs’, and you can also ‘stalk’ other people. The huge advantage to this is that much like twitter’s friends page you can see both your own and your ‘targets’ (friends) activities all in one page.

The interface itself is very slick and has a high level of useability. Each item gathered from your feeds appears as a headline, so it’s easy to see all the content at a glance. Next to each item is a drop down button, clicking on this will reveal the full entry. This makes it very easy to go straight to the content that you’re really interested in.

I’m not sure when it launched exactly (seems like only a few months ago), but it’s pretty new and in beta stage. Consequently there will be a few bugs, perfection can’t be expected just yet. I’m slightly embarrassed to admit it but I managed to somehow bring the whole site down yesterday! Possibly something to do with removing my last.fm feed. The lead developer, Dan, seemed happy that I’d helped discover a bug, but I’m still feeling slightly shamefaced for breaking his beloved site. I must add, the site was brought back to life quickly enough though.

All in all, I’m really loving iStalkr. It has a great interface, supports openID login, and is a great way to keep up with friends and make some new ones too. The team also seem very open to user contributed feature suggestions, which is always a good thing. It’s early days, but it’s already showing a lot of promise. If you’d like to stalk me, you can do so here!
