I had been using the followings as my homepage link on websites' profile pages:
When I heard of chi.mp, I thought that would be a perfect place, but I don't like the how it looks. So I started to use Twitter for a very short period, then changed to FriendFeed. Using FriendFeed is not a bad idea since they can see your feeds, knowing what you are doing at first glance but it doesn't look like a personal homepage.
I changed to Google Site, made a frontpage with banners of my blogs. That looked okay. Then, I thought Google Profile might be a better solution since it's Google.
However, after all these changes, I was very tired of keeping updating those links on every website.
At some point, the magic happened. I concluded that the best personal homepage is Google Search. It contains almost everything about you. Therefore, I started to use lmgtfy.com for directing people to Google Search because it added some effects, besides if I let people go to the results directly, they might not understand.
I have thought to use www.yjl.im as my homepage or something like yjl.im/livibetter after I bought that domain, but I wasn't really sure it would last forever.
I decided to stay with lmgtfy.com. But, when I was updating my StackOverflow ten or twenty minutes ago, it doesn't accept lmgtfy.com in link.
So, I decided to go to goo.gl and hoped I could create a goo.gl/livibetter. I couldn't, it doesn't allow you creating a customized link. I went back to j.mp.
Behold!
It's very clear that you know where this link would lead you to, right?
In case you wonder why I didn't just customize it as GoogleLivibetter, because that's a username or screen name, it's not supposed to be capitalized and please don't do that.
- My blog or website
- livibetter.mp
- Twitter / FriendFeed
- My Google Site
- My Google Profile via j.mp/livibetter
