It’s Like Bringing Sand to the Beach…
Monday, March 31st, 2008I say this because I’ve added yet another social media application - Tumblr. Do I really need another? No, not really. But do I love me some Tumblr? Yes, yes really. Why?
I can send pictures from my phone to a special Tumblr email and get the pictures online easily. I can import tweets from Twitter. I can quickly post little quotes, and even regular blog posts.
Lately, social networking applications seem to be moving towards cross-posting functionality. I can Jott to my Twitter and have the tweet sent to my Tumblr. I’ve already written about Twhirl’s auto updates to Jaiku and Pownce. I’ve also used TwitterSync to sync my Facebook status messages and Twitter.
As I let myself get so super obnoxiously busy, this functionality is becoming more important for effectively managing social media use. Of course, much of the fun of social media is the social aspect. Join Whrrl, become part of my friend network, and let’s meet up for coffee, at one of the top shops in Seattle.
