Re: Twittering on planet.d.o?
It appears that today either Luk himself or someone else added a Status feed to planet.d.o with one-liner info messages about what Luk's up to. I did that. Please not. Planet is not twitter/identi.ca/whateveronelinemessageservice. :) Luk: what do you think yourself? I think having a very limited amount of tweets from people that do not write long blog posts is ok, though if it's not appreciated I'll remove my feed. Short blog posts are ok, but one-sentence status things like identi.ca has, quite often with the same title and content are *IMO* pretty annoying. While it's easy ignorable if only one does this, we do have more than one feed on planet, and if everyone would do that, or only half of them - uh no, planet would be pretty unreadable. If someone thinks such a thing would be good to have on (or below) planet.d.o, an aggregrator for such extra feeds could be made. But I'm not sure that buys us anything, as those people can use those Debian groups on those other platforms? -- bye, Joerg Some NM: graphviz: ouch, that license is hard to read, damn lawyer gibberish. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

These messages have already started to annoy me as a) there are relatively a lot of them b) they don't really provide any information, or at least no context c) they are very simply not blog posts Although sending out such messages may be interesting to some, I also do not think they can be a replacement for proper announcements of changes in services or whatever. We have proper, official communication channels for that. (But that may not be the intention anyway.) Although I don't use Twitter myself, I understand that's a service that has been set up for such messages. Personally I'd like to see planet.d.o remain a pure blog aggregator. If people want to start a Debian twit service/channel/whatever, that's of course fine, but let's not mix dissimilar things in one service. I basically agree with Frans. If Luc (or whoever) wants to send a Twitteresque feed to Planet, I guess that feed could be auto-digested - i.e. have an intermediary consuming all your one-liners and sending them out once a day, probably timestamped. That way you won't have to repeat your information in several formats and it will be available to all Planet readers. Doing this integration is (or rather, I think should be) almost trivial... I don't have a Twitter account, but if your (Luc's or whoever is interested) feed is public, I will happily provide the digester, just ask :) -- Gunnar Wolf - gw...@gwolf.org - (+52-55)5623-0154 / 1451-2244 PGP key 1024D/8BB527AF 2001-10-23 Fingerprint: 0C79 D2D1 2C4E 9CE4 5973 F800 D80E F35A 8BB5 27AF -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
