It's not a website like the rest of them. Plus, I think its "top 8 friends" feature is the biggest progress made in the right direction- this software not only aggregates your profiles, it also offers the possibility of a one personal network. it makes no difference if you're friends with someone through FB or via Myspace. 8hands is the only one of these aggregators that provides live notifications to the desktop.

Another site is Natuba: it has some growing up to do, but overall it is a decent start to an aggregation homepage.
