Just as with my daily del.icio.us link posting experiment in the past, I have decided to discontinue my automated daily Twitter summary. I will continue posting to Twitter, and the most recent of my tweets will be displayed in my sidebar here. But think they should remain separate from my main blog content. I just feel like they “clutter” things up here, and the things I post on Twitter are different in scope from what I normally post in my blog.
I will likely continue to post mostly technical observations here in my blog (with the occasional side-track into non-technical areas). More personal, everyday, short thoughts will go to Twitter (with the occasional technical note). I’ve got a couple of WordPress-related posts coalescing in the back of my brain, and I hope to find time to write them up and post them soon. Stay tuned!
I’m glad you have decided this. Your RSS feed was full of twitter stuff when I opened my NetVibes and I almost unsubscribed from your feed.
Will keep it now though! Cheers…

Good call, this is what tumblelogs are for IMO.
It has always confused me as to why people republish their twitters on a blog. Isn’t twitter for keeping this stuff in one place?
BTW, Alex thanks for the heads up with the tumblelogs! Its a really good concept.
I have also leaved Twitter. It doesn´t make much sense in most of the blogs.
Thankyou very much, i was thinking of joining twitter,
but after reading your post i just changed my mind…..
thanks once again
I have to agree I’m glad you’ve turned it off – made the RSS feed cluttered!
I prefer to write a small post on my blog…
like Taviaon said, i also prefer a "little blog" to write simple word in my mind
I used to have weekly and monthly twitter recaps for my blog, but I decided to stop doing it because most of the time people would comment on my post and ask why I even do this. I originally just did it to have more posts on my site without actually doing any work, but I think that it just added junk to my site.
A monthly one might be worth posting, but anything more frequent than that and it isnt worth it.
