Honestly.com, a startup that allowed professionals to submit anonymous reviews of their coworkers, has been pretty quiet for the past couple of years. Turns out that's because the company has been busy reinventing itself. Today it's unveiling a new product and a new name TalentBin.Co-founder Peter Kazanjy says TalentBin addresses one of the big problems with Honestly not enough content. Rather than relying on users to create all the reviews, TalentBin looks at the content that already exists on the Web, specifically people's activity on a variety of social networking site. Kazanjy calls that activity your "professional exhaust," and argues that it contains lots of relevant information about your professional interests and accomplishments. So TalentBin aggregates a person's activity across sites like Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Meetup, Quora, Github, Sourceforge, and Bitbucket, then uses that data to create a searchable profile for recruiters.
