FriendBinder. FriendBinder – Not Just Another Lifestreamer. At first glance FriendBinder, the UK based start up from the midlands, looks just like another ‘me too’ lifestream site. Plug in your social networks including Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Last FM and RSS feeds and watch a live stream of all your friends information. Use the update function like a Twitter client to update your Twitter and or Facebook account. So far, so familiar. However, play a little longer and you will find some nifty features. Using the search function at the top of the page, I can search for any word (not just hashtag) that interests me, in this example, The Next Web. The search facility allows me to search for all mentions of the topic (like a Twitter search) or just my friends across the networks I have connected.

The trending topics function is also a cool feature to help me see what my friends are talking about and also who my friends are talking about or talking to. Stribe - Bienvenue - créez instantanément un réseau social sur v. LeWeb: Stribe’s plug and play social networks – with a differenc. [FRANCE/US] Stribe is a plug and play service to instantly create a social network on any website — not unlike competitors Ning, socialthing and meebo. It was founded in March 2008 by Kamel Zeroual, Gaël Delalleau and Demba Diallo, who launched Stribe at TechCrunch50 in September this year. Watch Stribe’s pitch at 00:17:40 The B2B offer is simple — site administrators can copy and paste a bit of javascript, and hey presto, they have a customizable, freely branded social network for their sites accessed via a small footprint toolbar that pops up at the bottom of the screen.

The differentiation happens on the Stribe network service, which allows a site’s community to interact with other communities on all Stribe-enabled sites. Moving forward, the company plans to open its API for website developers and provide more premium modules. The company describes itself as a new, multidimensional social layer interface which brings together local communities in a globally shared environment. Task.ly. TIGERLILY.

[FRANCE] Another startup pitching on their home turf is Storific, which is all about getting companies and customers talking to each other using the de facto social media avenues we know as Twitter and Facebook. Watch the Storific pitch at 00:22:30 It’s your classic ‘opt-in for great rewards’ model that drives the plethora of email newsletter services which most companies still rely on as their mainstay of direct communication with consumers.

In the social media space, this communication loop is scattered and disorganized, which is the problem the company is trying to fix. Co-Tweet provides a similar service which focuses only on Twitter. Storific amps this up into a ‘real-time conversation’ between stores and customers, riffing on the hyperlocal theme by offering “local businesses the right set of tools to manage and optimize their real-time communication strategy” — including custom printed cards that the company calls StoriPacks.
