I’m confused

Okay. There’s Myspace. Facebook. Blogger. And the excitingly different Twitter and Jaiku, with their free texts of things wot you wrote, straight to my mobile phone. There’s even the hard to get invited into Pownce. But I’m confused.

See, I want just one place to fit all. None of them do.

I want to be able to spurt out bits and then have people spurt out bits back.

Sometimes I want those spurts of mine to be long and meandering. Sometimes tiny and arrow-like in their sharpness.

So, I thought to myself I thought, well, ideally it should be Twitter. Problem: No good for getting replies that can be seen publicly. And no good for the huge ejaculations. Jaiku is better at conversations, no good at the long bits, and confusing as it merges all the feeds and channels and things together. To the casual newcomer it’s a mess. One that doesn’t invite comment.

Anyway, I thought and thought about it, ruled our My Space and Bebo and Facebook, and thought, well, I’ll just carry on using WordPress. I’ll use it for a bit of everything. That’s what I’ll do.

Unless, just to confuse me further, somebody tells me of yet another place to go that does a bit of everything.

Sigh!
