I have been so bad with my About Me on all my various profiles. It's one of those things I have on my todo list, for a while. The problem is I've been looking for the right kind of About Me. I was on Ellen van de Berg's site and saw that she had a nice list of questions for her About Me that I liked, but it was rather long, 146 questions…
I started thinking, god I would have to put that in all my profiles everywhere. I know that the data portability project is working on being able to make one profile somewhere and have that go to all my various sites, but it's taking forever! Even then what do I write? I wish there was a service I could just fill out info in a fun way and have that go everywhere and auto update.
Then I started thinking, "Why does it have to be text?" I mean there are a lot of people that don't speak english who may want to know about me, (or anyone for that mater). Wouldn't it be better if it was visual? I remember a site that did this somewhere that David Rothschild showed me, but I can't find it anymore. It asked you questions and you just picked a picture. But I would rather mix in some of my own media into that.
So I guess what I would like is a service that asked me questions, and then allowed me to pick pictures or add my own, and make an interactive collage for About Me. If anyone has the time to make this, please let me know.
I've added the questionnaire from Ellen's About me after the more if you want to try it. Hell, it would be more fun to have someone else make my about me, so if you know any of my answers leave them in the comments.
