Creeva’s World 2.0

Last night I got in a dis­cus­sion with Xie on how my cross­post­ing and data cen­tral­iza­tion to data broad­cast sys­tem works.   I was sad, I built a big flow chart with arrows and every­thing.   I’ve gone over enough times on all the sites I cross­post too, so the what, when, and how is not due to be writ­ten about again for the next two months.    My con­cern right now is why.

The eas­i­est way is that I don’t want my friends to be forced to choose which social net­work I do to.  Some of them have how­ever forced me into mak­ing choices of which ones I use to get updates on them.  If some­one leaves me a com­ment on a ser­vice I can’t import them into my blog, then I get an email noti­fi­ca­tion.   I will login once or twice a month on some of them, just to see updates from friends, but most of my friends are lazy so I don’t miss much.

Look­ing at myspace pages hurts my eyes and insults any integrity I have for sen­si­bil­ity of web design.  Face­book is too busy and a mish mash of every­thing.  All other ser­vives usu­ally fall into these areas.   It’s not like I don’t want to have a place in your walled gar­den, but I would pre­fer to just send you my infor­ma­tion.   I don’t want to go there man­u­ally and import or cre­ate it.   I have my own tools for cre­ation, design, and place­ment.   I’ve spent money on these tools (domain name, host­ing, flickr), I don’t need your tools.   You are insult­ing me but say­ing I can’t bring my toys over to play.   Well I just don’t come over or cre­ate any con­tent for you at all.   If I was pop­u­lar that would mean my friends would leave your ser­vice and go where I do intere­act and I can play with my toys.   You wel­come to come play.   If you know of an online ser­vice that allows me to send noti­fi­ca­tions in via some method other then phys­i­cally going to the site, send me an invite and I’ll come join.
