That cracks me up that you replied on the blog! Yeah, Twitter has shrunk my thoughts to 140 chars, then FB has a MUCH greater density of friends than anything else. Even if I could teach all of my friends how to use RSS and Google Reader, they’d probably all still be more active on FB.
But that’s kind of a cop out, since I (obviously) push blog updates to Twitter, and then to FB. So everyone sees the updates anyway. I think the real rub is that I’m not willing to invest (relatively) big chunks of time into writing a blog post anymore. The time I used to spend writing a blog post is now taken up with interacting with people on FB. And I don’t even do any of the goofy quizzes, etc. Just quick check-ins with people.

Really? Why? Time sink? Better interaction? Just curious…
