The Right Technology for Right Job

Dear Twitterers,

I've been picking up several followers on Twitter lately, which is kind of surprising as I haven't done much to promote it or anything, but I've seen some fundamental flaws in the way the my new followers use their accounts. Using Twitter to post the title and the tinyurl to your latest post is pretty much the easiest way to ensure that I will never ever follow you. If I wanted to know about new posts on your blog I would use interesting technology called "RSS" which not only predates Twitter it also, get this is even compatible with tools that were created for this specific purpose. So yep you kind of screw the pooch on by using Twitter to do so.
Secondly if I want to follow your Twitter posts the way I do not want to do it is by subscribing to your RSS feed for your blog and then get instead of updates about posts to your blog I get summaries of your Tweets.

So yo summarize it I want to read your Twitter posts I'll subscribe to your Twitter stream, if I want to read your blog I'll subscribe to your blog and never the twain shall meet.

Sigh,
DC Dan
