I'm hoping that at least one person with multiple profiles at a few different sites (esp. livejournal + friendster/myspace) will be willing to register at a site called spokeo.com

Thank you so much! this is SUPER-instructive, because I have to write a critique of the service. I just realized when I tried logging in from my real computer that the nav doesn't work with Mozilla on PC although it was fine when I was using a borrowed Mac laptop. These are things I gotta know! Thank you thank you.
