Iminta.com Offers 'One Ring' for Your Online Life
"Getting started is dead simple.... Just enter your username for each service and Iminta will do the rest.
"The interface and design of Iminta a very nice and heavy use of Ajax means there's very few page loads — most things happen
in the background allowing you to look around even as Iminta is working."

Iminta: Another Way to Lifestream What You're Into
"Iminta is what I'm in to. Get it? Aside from a clever name, this garage-based startup has a lot of things going
for it. The first most noticeable thing is it's very slickly designed, with a very Ajaxian style interface (just about
everything on the site slides around or has some sort of animated quality to it)."

Your privacy is variable: Iminta gets it
"Iminta has a cool thing going for it: you can put your followers in groups and specify which group sees what...
I really like the idea of variable resolution for social feeds. Maybe that's because, as an old guy (as opposed
to a gen-MySpace guy), I think privacy matters and that it's not an all-or-nothing concept."

Ex-CNETer Launches Iminta
"On the flip side, they allow people viewing your feed to strip out some of your feeds. So if you Twitter
too much, for example, your friends can choose not to see that, but leave everything else.
"It makes for a less simplified interface than FriendFeed, which has its pros and cons. But
as you add a lot of friends, the ability to manage the data is, in my opinion, a good thing."
- Michael Arrington
"Iminta is a service that wants to help you and your friends share what you're into (hence the name) across the different social networks you belong to. The difference between Iminta and other social networking sites is that your friends don't have to belong to twitter to see your tweets and they don't have to visit Yelp to see the latest restaurant reviews you've written. Everything you do on these sites is updated to one place, Iminta, and you can subscribe to the RSS feed so you don't even really need to return there either. You can also select specific groups of friends to have access to your information. So, if you don't want your work buddies to see the videos you're favoring on YouTube, then don't give them access to that account. Every site you belong to has different privacy settings so you're not limited to all or nothing. Iminta is currently in private beta... Here's my screencast tour of Iminta."
