[...] David Peralty from Blogging Pro writes exactly as I feel in a short post about that damn Twitter and those daily tweets. I have a little bone to pick with a variety of people. It seems their blogs have been converted into nothing more than a rolling list of their daily â€œtwittersâ€ from Twitter.com. [...]

I can only add one thing – I’m so glad that none of my favourite blogs are replacing their content with some useless Twittering and not messing up their feeds.

I agree. It is a bad practice to show these stupid feeds and merge them with the normal blog feed posts.

I tried this for about a week and I got the same feedback. I realized later on that I hated it myself.

Even worse is when (as seems to happen quite often) something goes wrong with the posting, and the damned tweet is repeated several times. I hate it. Should go on the sidebar IF it MUST appear at all in the blog. Best is just a link to the twitter place.

Twits.

Agreed… it’s annoying. Tell folks it’s annoying. If their twitter postings are really overshadowing the “real” content, enough folks unsubscribing should get their attention.

Concurred.

There was one blog I read that the author had put his Twitters into the main RSS feed. A post asking if he should continue with that met such a resounding ‘no’ that … well … he got the idea

I hate tweets and teitterings and am unsubscribing from any blog that subjects me to this awful mess.

Convenience ( read as laziness ) is an ugly thang.

No, that’s not too much to ask. Twittering in place of blogging makes for one of those “here’s what I ate for lunch” blogs, which nobody reads.

With your celebrity power… and mine (yeah right) we can start the movement against Twitter blog posts

Glad to hear someone agrees with me. It is sad how common it has become. Hopefully, some awareness that people don’t like it will shift the good bloggers away from doing it.

I totally agree with you, David! If I want short snippets I go to the Twitter page, when I want something more I’ll read the blog. The least the Twitter freaks could do is to remove the tweets from the main RSS feed and also push it out in the sidebar or something.

It’s a crappy way to update your blog, and a sure method to get me to unsubscribe from your feed. I suggest you do the same, David. The revolution is here!
