Managing your online Identity

DandyID provides a great service where you can manage all your online identities from a single place. If you are a member of several different Social Networks then DandyID can help you manage your identities. Your online identity is a collection of everything you do across the web, and DandyID helps you organise, share, and communicate that identity.

You can create a globally recognisable profile that follows you around the web and appears on DandyID enabled sites and manage it from a single location.

DandyID serves as a single reference point to your Flickr, Twitter, LinkedIn & over 250 other services.

You can find your friends around the web, manage them from one location, and take those relationships with you to other places online.

To get started firstly create an account then login to DandyID.

Once you have logged in click on My Profile and fill out your profile,

Whatever you put in the username field, will be user to create your DandyID Profile URL, eg http://www.dandyid.org/id/matthewtommasi

Once you have saved you profile, click on My Identities,

This is where you add and manage all your different social identities, from all your different social networks.

Setting this part up can take a while, depending on how many social networks you are a member of.. but just remember you only have to set it up once.

Select a network you are a member of and click on its hyperlink, eg,

Now login to this network you have selected,

You will need to go to your profile settings on this particular network and find your username, eg,

Once you have found your username, go back to DandyID and enter it in. To test it works click on the arrow,

If this is the correct username then it will open up successfully,

Now repeat this for all of your other social networks.

Now click on View My Profile,

Your profile will now be displayed, where you can access all your online identities from a single location.

Take note of the URL in your address bar, eg,

Done!

You now have all your online identities in a single place.

Just a tip.. why not add your DandyID to your email signature,

I hope this guide has helped you in some way.
