Who We Are
Overview
OneSwirl is an identity portal - a centralized location for everything related to you and your identity. This includes an online business card, contact methods, lifestream aggregation, and more!
Features
OneCard
If you provide optional personal data, then you can take advantage of our online businesscard - OneCard. It's displayed on your public page, but can also be used across the Internet to make contacting you (by any method) easier!
"Leave a Message"
Instead of requiring users to signup just to leave you a message, or creating yet another place to check private messages, visitors to your public page can send you a message, directly, either through email or Jabber/XMPP... all without leaving the page!
Lifestream Aggregation
By providing your usernames to other Internet services, OneSwirl can track your activities across the digital world, and leave them all in one easy-to-access location!
