Twitter doesn’t allow alteration of its privacy settings on a one-by-one basis so, for now, my entire Twitter is set to Private. Additionally, LoudTwitter, the service I use to get my Tweets to show up here once a day, doesn’t support Private Twitters so you won’t be seeing them here any more either. This means that if you were secretly following me before, you’re going to have to step up and admit it so I can approve you or just stop reading for the time being.
I’m going to have to find some convoluted way to handle this eventually. I like Twitter for the mass SMS nature of it, but, for real microblogging, it’s not quite the best of breed. And since I know very few people using it the way I do, it sort of defeats the purpose for me. Regardless of where I end up, I intend to make sure Twitter gets a copy of it so if you prefer to use it you won’t be left out. See how nice I am?
I like twitter, or at least the idea. I used it for a couple of weeks, but even now it doesn't work in a way that is convenient for me. I don't like getting SMS or email from twitter whenever anyone updates, but I do like getting IMs. But the IMs are broken on most days.
Agreed. I wish it was more granular. There are some people/things I want via SMS. Others, IM is good enough. For some, just reading on the site is plenty.
I just need to juggle some stuff around a bit.
