Installed QuickPost. This should make quick blogging random links I find interesting all the easier to do.
- Easier and faster. While the posts will eventually make it to the feed reader of your choice, the tweets generated via a plugin notifies a Twitter follower much faster.
- Realization: Tweets are much less valuable than full posts that aren’t limited to 140 (160, in actuality) characters. Hence, leveraging the quickness of tweets to link to a more information-laden post is awesome.
- Problem: Duplications.
- I link to something online.
- I post on the blog.
- Blog posts to Twitter.
- Feed reader grabs the post.
- Blog grabs the day’s worth of Twitter posts into a post (but silently).
- What happens if I post a link to Twitter instead?
- This is a change to the workflow… I don’t want people on Twitter to unnecessarily click on an extra link to get to the data…
- I’m going to just see how this goes. It’s not like it’s not getting “documented” somewhere anyway.
- Easier and faster. While the posts will eventually make it to the feed reader of your choice, the tweets generated via a plugin notifies a Twitter follower much faster.
Created a “Links” category for all posts made using this quickpost.
Created a “Mac Applications” for review mac applications. Thinking about making a “Mac Development” for… you guessed it. I’m wondering if I should be collapsing a few of these categories, but seriously, it’s kinda like that multi-year project of putting all of my old posts up here: It’s not really particularly important.
Changed the prefix to a new blog post tweet that gets set to Twittter from “New blog post:” to “Blog’d:”.
