I’m fine with being a Z-List blogger.

More like a zzzzz… list blogger, huh? Seriously, I’ve finally realized that I don’t need to write 300 word essays espousing my love for all things Web 2.0 with some sense of “purpose,” but just write the things I’m thinking about and just enjoy it. I don’t have adsense, but I can certainly do nonsense.
Lately things have been interesting on the Social Media front, I must say. I’m more involved than ever — continuing my love for FriendFeed, but also being more involved on commenting on a couple of blogs and a significant amount of tweeting. Combining like members of FriendFeed and Twitter, I have around 150 people following me. This makes my “real friend” to “internet friend” (there really needs to be a word for that) ratio at about 1:25. I can live with that.
FriendFeed as a networking tool.

I’ve become quite addicted to FriendFeed lately, making it the first and the last thing I do each day, and at several opportune times in between. While I initially used it to find new and interesting things, ala Digg, Mixx or Google Reader, I’ve recently seen the potential for networking. Sure, there are other “social networks” that you can say give you the same opportunity to meet with people and interact, but FriendFeed (henceforth in this post to be called “FF”) does something different. You begin to see your interests aligning with someone else, whether it’s their comments on the posts of others, or simply what they post. Since they’re not only posting directly to FF, but their OTHER social network environments as well, you begin to see the whole picture of who someone may be.
