Kelly, actually I should clarify. I like supplementing a traditional Lifestream with the addition of either filters for the services that are used or widgets that run alongside it with data segregated by services. If several days go by without my use of a particular service (often the case with say YouTube postings) it's nice to display the most recent items I created on that service which would normally get lost.

Mark, I'm curious why you are a fan of segregating services? I feel it does the lifestream a disservice because everything is disjointed. It doesn't create a cohesive narrative, but rather chunks of information about which the user must infer connections. The ability to be able to filter the stream by service or category is important, but displaying updates on a per-service basis is not the truest or most accurate portrayal of a lifestream.
