Very nice roundup. Just wish they'd done some type of conclusion paragraph or even a bulletpoint recap on who won!

I actually was pondering the idea for a people search service similar to these a year or so ago. Now there's 6 solid services in the space but I still think there's room for improvement. Even though all the data accumulated is publicly available on the Internet, I imagine there will be some privacy concerns once these sites get big enough. It's kinda freaky being able to type in a random person's name and instantly getting back all their info. People Search - Stalking Made Easy. :)
