10 March 2008 - 14:01I vow not to ‘crosspost’ with social media

I will not use twitter, tumblr or my facebook news feed to announce a new blog post.

Who’s with me?

[EDIT] I also vow to keep twitter and Facebook statues separate. (Thanks Si, although that’s a harder one).

The reason is that I don’t want to contibute to the “background noise” I describe here.

    Do you mean notifying people automatically or manually?

    It’s the automatic stuff that is starting to annoy me.

    Yes, yes, yes!

    Why not go further and resist duplicating status from Twitter to Facebook? Irritating when I get feeds from both.

    One step at a time , Si. I fear my facebook status would never get updated again.
