I try to share my own stuff only if I really like it. But it happens. :)

Wait, nobody is disagreeing with me? All the hard core self-promoters must have given up on this blog :)

Amen my brother. I could not have said it better. Just like eng, I've unsubscribed from people who have their blogs RSS feed imported to FF, then tweeted, then stumbled, then submitted to digg, then del.icio.us, etc. One of my (many) questions is - that shit doesn't even work, don't people realize it? It's not worth the freaking effort. Spend that time writing something USEFUL and it'll get found.

That class must be in advertising.

It's not too different from all the spam emails I still find in my email box
these days. I can hardly wait to get my first Viagra twitter.

I will say that the follow and subscribe model on Twitter and FriendFeed
work pretty well at reducing clutter, so I'm sticking with those services.

I've got a friend who's taking a college course on marketing and the internet - and the teacher is telling people specifically to spam every social network, etc. etc. Pretty much everything you're rallying against, heh.

I'm glad FriendFeed is changing the game - flooding services was getting old, fast.
