Is Digital Lifestyle Aggregation the Future?

February 7, 2005 | RSS | EMAIL | PRINT | 2 COMMENTS

It's really strange when something you've been thinking about writing shows up written by someone else. Well, this is just what happened with Marc Canter's "Digital Lifestyle Aggregation" post. Essentially, Digital Lifestyle Aggregation (DLA) takes all the disparate pieces of your digital life and puts it in one, easily accessible place. Here's Marc's definition:
Digital Lifestyle Aggregation is the notion of a software layer that unites all of the aspects of digital convergence. Whether it be a media collection at home, a calendar of memeories of road trips or to do lists for a picnic in the park - DLAs (digital lifestyle aggregators) will become a major part of our lives in the future.
Essentially, this is compiling all the stuff from the long tail and compiling it in one place. (For those who wanter more long tail info, read Chris Anderson's Wired article or check out his Long Tail blog. While you're at it, you can also read my post, "The Long Tail of Digital Life", if you're interested.)

Unfortunately, I don't really have time to get into everything I want to right now. But if you're interested, go check out those articles and hopefully I'll get working on my ideas for DLA.

You can use some HTML (a's, br's, p's, oh my!) if you'd like, if you don't know what that means, don't worry about it.

Another great post here Noah. We've been mulling over when we can make the time to extend your post on our own blog. Sometimes these things take time! But thanks for really providing insight into this aspect of the mobile lifestyle. So many others just skim the surface!

Cheers.

Hey Arienna,
Thanks for the compliment, I wish I had more to this post. I'm planning on expanding on it in the very near future.
