Friend Feed

There’s a lot of noise on the social media networks about… social media.

So many choices, so little time.

Which to join, and which to ignore?

My current plan is to join about as many as I can find, and then see which I find the most useful, and then let the rest whither away with lack of use. Perhaps this isn’t a very scientific way to do things, but I really don’t have the time to do in-depth reviews on each, one after the other, and with the speed that new services are appearing, I’d probably never keep up anyway.

Last week, I joined Friend Feed, and I’m finding this very useful so far. I get a daily email which is god for keeping tabs on those I follow, and there are some useful links appearing too – useful meaning that I find them interesting at least.

As you can play audio and video links from right within the page, that’s another cool bonus too. So as of now, I’m still twittering, and tumbling, and checking out friendfeed. I’m plurking less though as although it’s fun, it’s too time-consuming during the working day.
