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.

bounder’s soup. Soup.io seems to be tumblr with more friend aggregation facilities. All well and good - the bonus feature for those of us that have very many blogs is that you can of course be logged into your tumblr account and your soup account at the same time - leaving two quick bookmark-based microblogging platforms available.

There have been a number of times since I started my tumblr account that I wanted another for a specific purpose, now if I can only remember what they were…

Sign up, but please don’t just use it to push your blog feed, flickr pics etc through automatically.
