In other words, it is a collection of your Tweets, images, blog posts, boomarks, etc all in one stream. See an example on my new lifestream page.

If you have a Wordpress blog, it’s extremely simple to add a lifestream page. Just follow these steps:

1. Login in to your WP admin page and click the “add new” link in the plugin bar.

2. In the search field, type “lifestream’ and hit enter

3. Install and activate the lifestream plugin by iBegin

4. On the very bottom of the left hand column, click on the lifestream tab

5. Add as many or as few feeds from your social media accounts

6. Create a new page and in the body section type [lifestream]

7. Publish the page and check your new URL to make sure everything is working

Questions? I’d be happy to answer any I can in the comments.
