ZooLoo's own-your-own-domain tools get Facebook-savvy

Scottsdale, Arizona-based ZooLoo is an early-stage startup that launched in July. The company’s premise is simple: You can own your own domain, for example paulboutin.com, without having an IT guy figure it out for you. ZooLoo is heavy on customized, selective privacy and privileges so you don’t have to share your vacation photos with the entire Internet.

You also get your own blog, with a custom theme and — don’t underestimate the value of this — an easy-t0-use photo upload and management tool. It’s almost as simple to use as Tumblr, but with the all-important-to-some-people personal domain, rather than paulboutin.tumblr.com. Some of the tools, like the calendar, have been done better by Google. It’s a question of how badly you want that personal domain. Do you plan to run a business from it?

With everyone moving their life to Facebook, ZooLoo has now tied in Facebook Connect to make it easy for Facebook users to add a personal domain to their social lives on Facebook.
