Upscoop.com - Find Your Friend on Myspace, Facebook. etc

Upscoop is simple, easy and free: simply upload your email address book (from gmail, yahoo, aol or hotmail) and they will search for the social networking sites of your friends and family. I continue to reiterate my preference for web sites that are clean and focused, and this is one of them. I wasn"t wild about the color scheme (the baby blue and pink pastels made me think this would be a site to buy baby products), but I can"t knock the premise of the site. My biggest complaint, though, is that the site allows you to pull up your friend"s profile on MySpace, but on other networking sites, it did not. Not sure there is a way to change that, but it made the site less useful.

Upscoop is a fun, free service that allows you to find all your friends on all the major social networks, such as MySpace and Friendster. Three easy stepsâ€"why not give it a try?

Social networking is all the rage, and to be able to find your friends on different sites is a useful and fun tool.

They are not getting heavy traffic, are they marketing the site? Are they exploring ways to create partnerships with the networking sites so the profiles can be pulled up directly without becoming a member and searching on the site? How do they plan to make a profit?
