How are you using the Aggregation module?

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

I'd like everyone to share how they are using the Aggregation module on their site. Let's inspire others so that interest will build. Yes, I know you can import feeds and create more nodes. But what are you doing with the nodes? What are you importing? Why are you importing?

On my personal website (http://ericatkins.com), I'm using the Aggregation module to make my website my life hub. I'm involved in a ton of social network websites like Facebook, del.icio.us. Flickr, DIGG, Twitter, etc.

So, at ericatkins.com I'm importing my Facebook status updates (I got rid of Twitter now since I can access my Facebook status feed), del.icio.us bookmarks (with a special tag - so that not every single bookmark gets posted), and blog posts. I am about to start aggregating certain images with a special tag from my Flickr account as well as other blog posts that I make on other sites.

So, a person who is or isn't familiar with Web 2.0 will be able to visit my site and see what I'm doing online. They can track me at all of my social networking services. Essentially, they can follow my internet presence online because I am not aggregating my content.
