I’ve blogged about Twitter before, and still think it is kind of cool; but it has been on the back burner since Facebook is basically sufficient for everyone’s social networking needs. But I’ve been thinking of resurrecting my account recently, spurred on by a wish to broadcast a couple of fledging, one-line ideas that can’t really be expanded into a full blog.
The problem is that now there are too many methods to do the same thing. I’m talking about “status” messages. I can write a status message on my MSN nick, on my Facebook status, or on my Twitter account. Realistically what I want is to update it in only one place, which would be on my Twitter account because at least on there I don’t have to start all my updates with my name.
Which is the reason why I took a look at Twitterbook, and decided not to put it on a cron job to duplicate my Facebook status onto Twitter. Ideally what would work for me is if Twitter and Facebook statuses merged into some sort of status mini-blog. I guess I should wait for Web 3.0.
