It makes a lot more sense to buy a scooter. They get up to 80mpg.

Best,

I know a lot of people feel the same way, I was hoping it would end but it came to a bigger head than I expected.

Comparing to IM is like comparing Apples and Oranges, I do have a lot of IM accounts, but IM isn't a community like pownce, plurk, twitter, are, IM is a communication tool like email or phone. Social networks are communities, and communities are not blind posts, and ignoring the comments replies, and questions you receive to your posts

Thats the problem I have with services like ping.fm its not a two way street like these networks are meant to be, and your by far not the only person to do, and with more and more networks coming around, I feel I've fighting a losing battle

Interesting perspective, albeit short-sighted.

You assume that everyone who might have a modicum of interest in something I might pass along is only interested in the same services I'm interested in. What, then, do I do if 4 people want to follow me on Plurk? Do I force them to use a network they'd rather not use? You're thinking of the paradigm completely bass-ackwards.

I have people who only follow me on MySpace. I don't like MySpace, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't publish there if they're giving me the opportunity to do so - and if certain friends only wish to follow me there.

I signed up for the services to keep my followers in touch - and for no other reason. How many IM accounts do you have? Rather, do you use an IM client like Pidgin? Why not make your friends communicate with you through one service (AIM) over any other (Yahoo, MSN, Jabber, etc.). Do you only communicate to "Jabber" friends?

My identity is central to myself, but these various services splinter my ability to centralize my interests and perspectives online.

You have to think about this a biiiiiiiiiiiiit more before making wild-eyed accusations.

Glad you got something out of the article. For whatever motivation I had when writing it, it certainly got a lot of buzzing!

blaster,
sorry for your situation, i had a grandmother die of brain cancer. and yes I was quite annoyed at the world during that time period. And just like I ended up in some trouble during this period (grades, fight), it still didn't excuse my behavior.

I think most of use would have been more than happy to give you some slack and not be has harsh if we had known you had been going through rough times. Like I said in the post you are/were a great guy to talk to, and you do know your stuff. Just wish you had been more open, even if it was some like "personal issues" or "rough patch".

Sometime in June, our dear friend Lorraine was diagnosed with brain cancer. From that time on, my mom and I cared for her on a 24/7 basis. Two weeks ago she was placed on a ventilator due to pneumonia. Ten days ago the ventilator was removed and she passed away. Only my close friends knew this, as I don't want my personal life dragged through the internet.

That's why I've been such an ___. As much as I have tried to keep the anger and frustration separate, I did not succeed.

Before you condemn anyone walk in their shoes for a bit.

My apologies to all.
