Content sharing, content tagging and categorization of content are all filing methods for profile generation. The more that a user interacts with the web, the more data crumbs are left behind. The aim of course would be to take months worth of data to create a user profile that is always changing as the user interacts more with the web. FNB share feature, no comment! :) @IslandChic - Thanks for the comment and the support! This opinion is not one that I have just thought of, it has been something that I have seen emerge over many months, if not years and I stand by my theory :) @Gary - I'm glad that you see what I'm talking about. It will certainly be a great help with your web projects. As the boy scouts moto says, " Be prepared!" @Selwyn - My Zoolander "Blue Steel" look needs more pouting. It needs work! Thanks for the comment. @Phuti - Thanks so much for the comment! @Rupert - Absolutely, these services have already started emerging. The truest champion will be he who owns the platform for data consolidation that will be used in this profiling. Contextual web services can certainly not work in isolation, like current web profiling engines. One day, my friend, one day! @ChrisM - Thanks mate! Content management has already started to emerge with web 2.0 goodies like RSS feeds, Digg, Muti and even Afrigrator is a shift toward a consolidated content platform. We are not far from this shift. It's close enough to smell! Brace yourself my friend, things will change fast! I will seriously be keen to hear your thoughts on how online marketing and SEO will adapt based on my predictions of this web evolution! @steve - I think that the profiling future of the web will certainly not be isolated to only one transaction.
