Creeva’s World 2.0

was accused the other day of spam­ming Myspace with all of my updates, though it was indi­rectely on a friend’s blog via the com­ment sec­tion of a post he did on twit­ter.   The poster (I’m look­ing at you Tevy) thought I was using twit­ter to cross­post to every­thing.  Here was my reply:

Tevy’s my setup is kind of unique but I’ll give you the run down.

I post to my blog at creeva.com — when I make a post my blog cross­posts to myspace, vox, live­jour­nal, dan­delife, blog­ger, msn spaces, xanga, and multiply.

My web­site also has an out­bound feed — this is fil­tered to cer­tain top­ics and posts noti­fi­ca­tions to twit­ter, tum­blr, jaiku, face­book, and suprglu.

At then end of the day all the web ser­vices that I use (flickr, all­con­sum­ing, 43things, 43 places, cocom­ment, digg, del.icio.us, google reader shared items, youtube favorites, youtube uploads, picasa, pho­to­bucket, stum­ble­upon, newsvine, pownce, and any other blogs I use) are each wrapped up with what­ever I’ve done on any of those respec­tice ser­vices through out the day and done as a sin­gle post (per ser­vice) on my blog.

Of course once a post is made on my blog it gets cross posted to myspace etc, with the excep­tion of twit­ter (since I use it for noti­fi­ca­tions AND per­sonal use) noth­ing really hits my blog twice since I’ve been very care­ful of any redun­dant data processing.

We’ll just say I love word­press plugins

A few arti­cle I’ve writ­ten on this:

http://creeva.com/2008/01/11/life-caching-is-better-then-life-streams/
http://creeva.com/2008/01/23/brand-management-branding-yourself/

I’m sure what I’ve writ­ten above is miss­ing some ser­vices and such but that’s about 90% of what is going on.

Now I know that this leads to alot of updates on myspace, but I’m sure this seems unnat­ural to some since most the peo­ple I know post next to noth­ing.  99% of the updates I see are XXXX updated pro­file infor­ma­tion.  I look at the pro­file and it looks the same to me.   Very few peo­ple actu­ally con­stantly upload pic­tures (I’m look­ing at an auto­mated way to do this from my flickr account) or write blog posts.   So some­times I need to go to other ser­vices to find the peo­ple like me that update their pro­file infor­ma­tion and cre­ate content.

I truly want to read con­tent from peo­ple I know, look at their pic­tures, or watch their videos it’s just that there seems to be so lit­tle, while I of course go through my cross post­ing glut.   My friends don’t like switch­ing ser­vices and that’s fine, I’ll just bring all my glut of infor­ma­tion and data to them.
