Thanks for the mention. I agree that your idea has a lot of value - but we do tend to believe that humans are better sorters than machines when it comes to the identity-search context. In addition, tools from Technorati and Google make it possible so you can see each new mention of your name - we're not convinced that we can outdo those folks quite yet.In talking to some other folks about what ClaimId does, they agree with Fred - they would rather pick and choose what to add than have something add it automatically. Additionally, Fred has a smart point about letting Google and Technorati do what they go best while making use of their results in a separate application.
ClaimID is designed to be very simple, but we're constantly adding new tweaks and features. Make sure to check back in with us in the future - we're really only getting started.
OK, I'm sold on the idea.
