Dandelife − 18 February, 2007
I saw an article about Dandelife in one of my Netvibes feeds. I created an account. I initially wondered what the point was, since it just seems life a site to blog on, except that you're encouraged to write about past events. Then I saw the cool timeline widget and decided that the widget alone made the site worthwhile. One big problem--they ask you for your first and last name when you sign up, and then it appears you can't disassociate that name from your account even if you change your account details. I don't go to the sites like this and tell the world exactly who I am. Seriously, Dandelife, I can't think of another similar website that publishes your actual name without giving you the option to hide it.
So I deleted my first Dandelife. I just created another one with a different name. I'd like to play with the timeline feature. It might help to organize my life story. I could print it out and take it on first dates with me...

That's a good observation. I'll work on changing that. Thanks for pointing it out. It used to be that you could change the name of your dandelife. We took out that feature, but if enough people ask for it, then we will add it back in.

you don't even have to print-out your life story, all you have to do is email the link. ;-)
