Platforms

I have just about decided that I can't keep up with Tumblr and it's silly for me to try. Unfortunately, the Monkees fandom only seems to exist there and on Facebook, and I am not even attempting any fandom activity on Facebook; most of the people I have on there are either former students or family members. Most of the fanart end of the Channel Awesome/Chez Apocalypse famdom seems to be Tumblr-centric, too. *sigh*

I wish this sort of blogging-focused social networking was still popular. There are not words for how much I hate Facebook, and text posts more than three sentences long don't get responses on Tumblr. I don't mind Twitter, but it has pretty severe limitations and IMHO isn't much good for fandom stuff other than news and roleplaying. I end up writing twelve-tweet essays because of the character limit.

Ah, well. At least there are a few folks still left here. I'm going to attempt to journal more often this year, although a lot of the time that's likely to be the "altar log" type posts (which I should be doing more often anyway).

Since I interact with tumblr on a raw basis (no reader, xkit or blacklist) I've instituted a 42 rule. Once I've dug back to page 42 on my dashboard I declare bankrupt and start over the next time.

I have to be at a remote location to reblog or post.

I also follow just a managable number of whatever they are called.

I probably ought to prune my follow list on Tumblr, but I hate cutting people - everyone on there seems to take it so personally!
