convenience of twittering v blogging and loneliness of blogging v facebook and orkut
So I find myself twittering via both my SL avi and my “rl” username more often than I would ever blog – perhaps that’s because I dont write long posts on my blogs (I reserve my lengthy writing for my conference papers and pubs – I’m fairly old-fashioned that way – also since I am more of a journal writer and letter writer from the 70s … I tend to treat online exchanges more as interpersonal conversation..)
Its easier just to update my twitter with one liners.
I also dont like alone writing online – since my alone writing and journalling is mostly done in my nice paper journals or in word documents…
So facebook and (orkut and myspace ocasionally) currently give me a reason to post online for particular groups of people as audience.
How and where can I sort out all my writing and thoughts? Mostly when writing for publication – since I started writing for publication in my teens when I started to aspire to be a freelance journalist.
just some random thoughts ….
