Identity and Sharing #2 - why you don't see my links on Facebook

[andrewducker]

And it's not because I don't feel happy with Facebook. It's because people get quite enough spamminess over there already.

On LJ, not only is it a single daily post*, but it's also got a tag, which means that you can block it if you so wish**.

Twitter, I don't mind overloading, because that's what Twitter is all about.

Facebook, on the other hand, would suddenly be getting a load of new posts from me, which would just piss people off.

I will be feeding them to Google+ _if_ they implement tags, so that people can choose to filter out those entries.

*If someone knows how to do a daily post on FB from an RSS feed then please let me know, because I'd be happy enough to do that.
**Go here, find me, and tell it not to show anything tagged with "delicious glue".

Yay!

:-p

I don't actually feel at all proprietary about my links. After all, I get them (mostly) from other people in the first place.

And it always makes me happy to see them appear elsewhere, with or without attribution :->
