My Internet Mess

April 2, 2009

We are all connected now aren’t we? Web 2.0.. the chaotic numbers of social websites.. there is no end to this madness.

I do admit, I do enjoy connecting with people, and I have my fair number of social websites. I’m on Flickr and twitter, and Facebook. This is minimal compared to others who enjoy a much wider social presence online.

However, even with this many social networks, I ask myself…

…I got my photos on Flickr. Now I want to upload more… wait, I can put those on Facebook. Hmm, but can’t I put them on both Facebook and Flickr? I can, but why should I? I’ll just install the Flickr app on Facebook. What about personal pictures? Oh.. I’m not even sure if I should put those up there, or anywhere! I guess I’ll keep them locally. Oh but wait, I can always upload the public ones to my Google Picasa web thingie, can’t I? And upload the personal ones and set them as hidden? Or wait, can’t I integrate that somehow with the rest of the social websites? Bleh!

…I need to update my status, something happened and I need to share it with the world. I’ll blog about it. Nah, it isn’t worth a blog post, how about I tweet it. Hold on, I can also update on Facebook, at least I am not limited by 140 characters. Bummer, if only I can update both at the same time… oh wait, I can do that! Great.. so what now?

Alright, I admit, it isn’t as chaotic as I had suspected, but still… very troublesome none the less. If only there was a way to put it ALL together…. *staring at the blog*

…welcome to the Internet.
