Do not spam your friends with useless info

Have a Twitter account? Have a Facebook account? Have a FriendFeed account? Have a xyz account?
Do you stream all that information to each other? Is your Stream of tweets on Facebook and FriendFeed? And are your FriendFeed updates on Facebook? And are many of your friends following you on FriendFeed, Twitter and Facebook? Well, they might not be for long anymore. And I especially do not need your @replies and retweets!
All those tweets, updates, shares and stuff are getting on my nerves. Wanna see what I mean?

BUT at least for the Twitter-In-Facebook there is a great solution.
Meet “Selective Twitter Status“.

  • Avoid confusing your Facebook friends

    I have to apologize for this. Did not know they broadcast every single like out to the world… I turned it off now.

    Hope you keep me on your social graph… ;-)

    I didn’t shoot directly at you! I’ve planned to write about this for a couple of days now. You last “I like the whole world” spam pushed it over the line :-)
    No offense!
    Next I have to convince more people.

    And please, use the above application if you have important information :)
