A Personal Blog
Moving My DailyTweets Off the Blog
I’ve been meaning to do this for awhile, but it’s finally done.
For the last several months (okay, almost a year), I’ve been reposting my Twitter updates to my blog. I did this both because my “blogging” has largely moved to Twitter *and* because while my Web 2.0-y friends get Twitter, my friends and family may or may not – and this blog is a personal blog, after all.
But, the problem was that Twitter posts going up meant that I didn’t feel a motivation to try and blog much.
So what I’ve done is move my Twitter stuff to the sidebar, provided a link to my Twitter page, and a link to the feed for my Twitter updates. If you want to read them, feel free. If you don’t, you no longer have to.
This work as a compromise for everyone?
Now if only I could figure out a way to post my Tweets like once a week to the blog, as a real compromise… Any ideas?

I’ve been publishing daily digests & I felt the same lack of motivation. The thing is that every time I think about stopping it, someone emails me saying that they like what I’m doing.
Like you said, I’d love to publish them maybe once or twice a week, but I don’t know of any automated way to do that just yet.

Wonder if anyone feels like modding TwitterTools to allow for a weekly digest or something (every X number of days)? That’d be a rocking compromise for me …

Removing your daily Tweets from your blog is a very good idea because this will save you a lot of time and by this you will write more quality posts.
