Syteup (a complete rewrite of Syte) is a really simple but powerful packaged personal site that has social integrations like GitHub, Dribbble, Instagram, Tumblr, Wordpress, Linkedin, Last.fm, SoundCloud, Bitbucket, StackOverflow, Flickr.
You can see Syteup in action on my personal website.
A more up to date but less stable version is available here.
Syteup use Tumblr, Wordpress.com or Blogger for blogging and your blog will be the primary page of the site.
Suteup currently support many different social services:
Some other services integration is planed. For more up to date list of currently supported services and planed services isavailable on TODO.md file.
NOTE: Some services can not be supported as accessing them from client side will give crackers full access to your account (e.g: Twitter, Foursquare) or the service provider does not support server side requirements (e.g: neither SOP nor jsonp are supported by Steam,...), if you want them to be implemented, ask the service provider to supported limited permission access tokens or other needed requirements.
Syteup dose not require any specific server side future as it is server-less moder HTML5 webapp.
