Co-incidently we are making something similar and going to launch soon. What are all platform you are aggregating content from as of now? Website is not loading so couldnt not check anything.

One more query. Is it paid tool or free?

Its a free tool, the sync server is little jammed for now. But it will notify you when its synced.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Most of this site is extremely disingenuous. eg: https://rime.co/@WarrenBuffett "Created October 2015" He's listed under "Featured Users" You're apparently taking his profile image from Twitter, while also making it seem like he's a user of the site. You're direct linking to his profile image here: https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/3599636117/8468a03db84e... And then manipulating the look of it. That's most likely…

I left with the same feelings. I clicked on "This is a guest user" expecting some sort of explanation about guest users, but instead I get redirected to some strange page with different branding. http://imgur.com/fiLeSBk Very unclear as to what I'm supposed to do here so I left the page.

Actually their is an explanation but I have accidentally kept it for the loggedin users. I will fix this soon.

But here is the preview:

> What is a guest account?

> When a brand/person we like is not in a platform we miss their update. But its not the case here, you can create your beloved brand/personality and follow their updates. And when anyone like or comment on them we send them a tweet through our twitter bot (https://twitter.com/rimebot) to let them know :)

> I want to be a moderator

> It's still in development stage so if you are interested to be a moderator drop us a mail guest.moderator@rime.co.

You can also use rime as a tool to create profiles of others. Rime users can create anybody’s guest profile So, is there any verification of this, at all?

Currently moderators verify the profiles.

I think you just picked or may be looked on only one profile. If you look on other guest profile for example https://rime.co/@TEDTalks/about, you will see all the social media links and content from respected platform. As i said we have build a wikipedia kind of structure for guest users (Just like a Wikipedia page, only for social content).

Isn't it amazing to follow people from one place? You can use it as a tool to create profiles for the people you want to follow and no need to wait for them to join.

Without understanding full product you have judged it in totally different way. Its not manipulating the look but its re-organisation of content of different type from different platform.

I would say please take a look again and let me know what you think. And Yehh we can write "Featured profile" instead of ""Featured Users".

Isn't rebranding content against the ToS of most of the APIs for the 3rd parties you're aggregating?

Yep. Twitter, for one, will not like this. At all.
