Dunbar's number proposes that humans can only comfortably maintain 150 stable relationships. Well I don't know about stable... but I'd say I interact with far more than 150 people every day. With interactions via email, chat, social networks, blogs, web sites, discussion forums, customer communities and a dozen other sources, it's a real challenge for me to keep up with who all these people are.

That's the problem Nimble is trying to solve.  Here's a quick look at some of what Nimble can do.

While several products are claiming to help you know who people are, Nimble is the first I've seen that instantly pulls in data from multiple sources, giving you a very complete overview. My first reaction was a mixture of awe and fear. Of course Nimble is only aggregating data that is publically available, but by doing so it really reveals a lot about the digital footprints we're all leaving out there.
