SocialThing! is our inaugural partner for Crenked Out! Crenked Out! offers free invites to unique products for Crenk Readers. SocialThing is basically a lifestyle or content aggregator. With most people these days having 2 social network profiles, possible a blog or two, a twitter account, pounce account and more, it is hard to keep up with all this information. SocialThing is trying to provide the product that will bring all of these profiles together in a simple environment, which will allow the users to not only keep up-to-date on all their content but even make some connects that werent previously possible.

SocialThing! has been nice enough to offer 300 invites to Crenk readers. First come first served, so head here to signup.

Alltop is a news aggregation site that has been launched by Guy Kawasaki, in which displays the most recent headlines from a preselected set of “top” sources. They have numerous categories including celebrities, gaming, and politics. The company is basically Guy Kawasaki, but he has also received a minor investment from the guys over Electricpulp.

Crenk has been included in the Social Media category within Alltop. We arent at the very top, but hope to work our way up the list. So Guy and Electricpulp, make sure you keep an eye on our progress. You can find us on the 9th line down, in the same column as Jeremiah Owyang.

Spotplex was touted as a Digg killer by many! It never eventuated! Why do you think it never really grew to be a strong player in the content aggregation market?? Well I know why, CAUSE I CAN NEVER GET IT TO WORK PROPERLY!!

The site itself has very good fundamental and the service could be very very useful but possibly they are having a lot of problems because it provides dynamic and instant content.

Does anyone use Spotplex and what do you think about it service?
