infinite.ly (Private Alpha) -- A DIY Social Media Tool?

infinite.ly. First thing that pops up in my head when I saw their site is the social media practitioners who could be most benifitted from it. Since I haven't received my invitation yet (which I hope I will get one), I'll just copy and paste the description of they provided on their site of what we can expect from infinite.ly.

Build your social presence
Create a custom microsite that brings together all your content and activity from Twitter, Facebook, Flickr and Youtube.
So it must be something like Friendfeed?
Understand your market
Track all the mentions, comments and ratings that your content is generating, and find out if the general feedback is good or bad.
So it must be something like, Convoflow, which is created by another Philippine web engineering firm Proudcloud? Or, BackType or RowFeeder (the few that I'm familiar with)?

Talk to your costumers
Communicate directly with your market no matter which social network they're on, from one central place. 
Interesting. So it must be something like Hootsuite or Tweetdeck, etc? But I'm pretty much interested as to how is this going to be implemented. Are the feeds from each social site be in one stream like friendfeed? Or, just like how hootsuite/tweetdeck do it -- each of the social sites has its own stream? (Correct me if I'm wrong though I'm not a tweetdeck user.) Or, maybe a whole new way of workflow?

So I guess in short, infinite.ly is a social media monitoring tool. If you're a conscious social media enthusiast, then you probably have an idea how this tool works. If you are not, then you can skip all those Social Media Mastery training with all the bangs and whistles, just sign up for infinite.ly. (You can check this post of mine re groundswell marketing to have a quick idea what's with the 'social media' buzz.)

One of the things I would really like to have is to be able to get results by location. It's more of I wish for it to have a more detailed local results for Philippines. It will be more helpful for local businesses.

infinite.ly is, I believe, another brainchild of Luis Buenaventura.They are still in private alpha so there might be limited invites. Simply heed to infinite.ly to get an invite.
