Haven't looked in for a while ... what's up with Social Software Intellectuals?

Are we having big discussions? Coming up with next generation ideas?

Looks like I'm fragmented over a dozen social spaces ... got very into Facebook briefly and all my IRL fiends are there (not here) but it got old fast, I have Orkut but not to use much, addicted to Twitter. I want to try and use Behance well ... I see LinkedIn growing all kinds of extra features like Tribe already had ... and yet I'm still encouraged to make my "own" groups at Ning.

It's getting crazy. And I want ways to pull it all back together. I know about OpenID, but I want to talk about *use* more than technology. How do we want to *use* all these different networks together? Do we want to be able to simply merge all the social networks together behind one interface? Or do we simply want to import widgets from one network to another? Or to see a feed of messages posted from friends on any of these networks ...

What real life use-requirements do you have for integrating multiple social networks together? What real life requirements for NOT blurring them?
