Update Your Facebook, Twitter and DandyID Statuses!

February 14, 2013

We are the first to admit that DandyID hasn’t had a lot of love for quite some time however over the past year we have been working quietly in the background to increase performance and plan out our roadmap for 2013.

We are totally pumped with what is on our roadmap but want to let you know about some of our recent enhancements that have taken place that will be coming to you very soon:

Some of you may have noticed a decrease in the time it takes to login or load up DandyID.  This is something that we have been and continually tweak/update to ensure we provide better performance.  We did some major overhauling like a major restructuring/code cleansing…  in addition to  investing in more servers & a more reliable hosting solution to provide you a much more responsive  service offering.

We certainly see the improvements in responsiveness and will continue to tweak and improve on a frequent basis!

We are listening to what the community wants and one of those wants was  for us to implement a “Status Update” feature where you can input what your doing or working on at any given time.  Having this easily updatable feature provides you with the ability to include a link to whatever you like in your status… so for those of us that care about link love… its super cool but not only can you update your DandyID status, you can now update Facebook, Twitter and soon to be Google+!  You can update your status real time or you can choose to schedule your updates for a later date!

Here is what the Status Updating looks like:

New Feature: Control the Visibility of Your Identities

September 15, 2009

lockWe are pleased to announce DandyID now offers a feature that allows you to toggle the visibility of your online identities, controlling which of your accounts are publicly shared.

This has been an extremely popular request. Having multiple social media identities doesn’t necessarily mean that you want to share all of them everywhere. For instance, some of your accounts may be less active, or perhaps too personal to display. Now you can independently select which identities you’d like to display on your public DandyID profile, and which identities you would like displayed on the extensions and plug-ins built on top of the DandyID API (e.g. the DandyID WordPress plug-in and Facebook application, etc. – see a list of plug-ins here).

You can find the new visibility settings in the “My Identities” section under the tab labeled “Visibility Settings“. Simply uncheck the identities you’d like to be invisible.

Also, if you have a pro-account, the identities that you choose to display will still be stats enabled. голова болит секс

Thank you to all of our loyal users who continue to suggest new features and help us innovate. We sincerely hope you enjoy this new feature!

DandyID Launches ClaimMyName

June 30, 2009

DandyID is excited to announce the release of ClaimMyName, a service that makes it easy for brand-conscious individuals and organizations to protect themselves by registering their custom URLs across hundreds of social networking and social media sites. To sign up and/or to watch a video demonstration please visit the following link: http://www.dandyid.org/beta/claimmyname.                

Also, please help us get the word out by using this link to tweet about the release.  

What follows is a little more background information on why we decided to launch ClaimMyName.

Over the past year DandyID has invested heavily in building a very rich set of free services that cater to our core user base; and we are now seeing the fruits of this labor pay off with higher than expected conversions into to our recently released Pro Accounts (http://www.dandyid.org/beta/upgrade). Our users can rest assured that we will continue to add value (and features) to both our free and pro services. Furthermore, our most popular features (such as social identity verification) will remain free for everyone.

However, we also learned something very important from the last year and from the release of our pro accounts: several brand-conscious professionals and corporations (i.e. not just hardcore social media enthusiasts) are signing up for and appropriating DandyID as a platform for their brand. The interesting thing about this demographic is that they already have established brands in their respective niche industries, and they are now being forced – for better or worse – into social media. 

These professionals and businesses recognize that social media is transferring the balance of “brand power” into the hands of consumers. Corporations no longer own their brands in the conventional sense, nor can they control them with traditional methods. Instead, they must become part of the conversation, which means that to stay relevant they must participate in social media. ClaimMyName is as paid service targeted toward brand-conscious individuals and organizations who seek to readily secure a platform that they can then use to join the social media conversation. 

In addition, ReadWriteWeb has a great post up about the service, as does LouisGray.com. порно фильмы онлайн новинки

June 4, 2009

DandyID is excited to announce two major product releases, Pro Accounts and Identity Verification: 

DandyID Pro Accounts are for users that really want to understand and increase the impact of their online identity. Pro users have access to key analytics that let you track how people are finding and engaging you online. As a Pro user you are also able to discover where your contacts exist online and which social networks are most important to them.

Identity  Verification  is a free service that allows you to verify that you are the owner of your profile on several popular social networks, and then links your verified profiles together so that the real you can be easily discovered. If you’d like to learn more about this cool new feature check out our post on Identity Verification.

Coverage in the Blogosphere:

LouisGray.com has a great post up about these new products.

You may read the full post here: http://www.louisgray.com/live/2009/06/dandyid-provides-path-to-social.html.

Identity Verification Launched

June 1, 2009

We’re excited to announce a new feature allowing DandyID users to verify ownership of their various profiles. 

verify_services

 

This is an important step, offering an additional layer of trust for our users. Verified services will be distinctly displayed in public DandyID profiles, and also noted in our API to notify third-parties and extensions. Shortly after this release, verifying a service will additionally disallow another user to “claim” the same identifier.

Utilizing the open authorization protocol OAuth, “FlickrAuth” and Facebook Connect, the initial six services available for verification are Twitter, Brightkite, MySpace, YouTube, Flickr, and Facebook – and we are continuing to add to this list.

      DandyID Partners with Barakhamba Biotech to Offer DNA Sequencing

      March 31, 2009

      dna_swabGotcha!  This post was actually part of an April Fools’ Day joke.  Thanks for playing along, though!  We had a lot of fun coming up with this, and you have to admit, it would be rather cool…

      We’re thrilled to announce today that we’ve partnered with New Dehli, India-based biotechnology company Barakhamba Biotech to offer genotype sequencing to our customers.  For $199,  you will be able to purchase a “spit test” kit directly from your DandyID dashboard.   The kit contains a saliva swab, instructions, and discreet, postage-paid, padded mailer.  You simply collect a sample of your DNA by swabbing the inside of your cheek, place the sample in the included protective plastic tube, and drop it in the mail to be sent back to Barakhamba.  In 10 to 12 weeks DandyID will receive a digital representation of your DNA genotype, which will then be tied to your account.

      Why are you doing this?

      DandyID is committed to helping users truly own their online identities.  Unfortunately, even though the web is getting more social every day, it is still a largely impersonal medium.  Because of that, identity fraud is a major issue.  By offering a way for users to tie their social identities to their DNA code — something that can’t easily be faked! — we’re offering an added layer of verification. Your genetic markup acts as a unique fingerprint that securely and accurately verifies that your online identities really belong to you.

      Why have you partnered with Barakhamba Biotech instead of a more well-known, US company like 23andMe?

      Barakhamba Biotech is one of the world’s most advanced biotechnology firms.  Their labs operate at CLIA-level standards, and Barakhamba is the only non-US lab to receive approval from the US Department of Health and Human Services to provide genetic genotyping services for diagnostic use in American hospitals.  Many local crime labs at police departments around the United States also routinely outsource their DNA testing to Barakhamba Biotech.

      buy cialises

      Because costs are lower in New Dehli than they are in the United States, we’re able to offer a world-class genetic analysis and identification service at a much lower cost.

      dna_labWhat else can I learn from my DNA?

      Though it won’t be in the in initial release, we have a number of amazing new features planned around your genetic information.  We’ll reveal these new features over the next couple of months, but here’s a taste: how about spot-on social network suggestions based on your unique genetic markers? how about being able to hook you up with new friends based on a never-before-available genetic matchmaking service?  The possibilities are truly endless!

      Additionally, for an extra $99, Barakhamba can provide you with a range of additional information gleaned from your genetic code.  Learn about your ancestry, your predisposition to over 100 different genetic traits and diseases, and what sorts of things you may pass on to your children.

      Will this affect developers that use DandyID’s API?

      That’s one of the most exciting parts of this entire announcement: in July, we’re planning to roll out a new version of our API that will include hooks into users’ DNA information!  That should enable exciting, never-before-possible genetic mashups.  Imagine getting truly personal recommendations based on something as infallible as your genetic code, or resting easy knowing that when making an online purchase, your identity has been verified securely by your own genetics!

      Of course, allowing your genetic code to be made available via the DandyID API will be a strictly opt-in program.  Further, for our US-based users, the 2008 Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) prohibits discrimination by health insurance companies and employers based on genetic information, which makes sharing your genetic information via the DandyID API a safe and rewarding option.

      When will this be available?

      We expect to launch this program on our site sometime in mid-May, with the API tie-in to launch a couple of months after that.  Keep an eye on this blog for further announcements regarding this exciting new parternship!
