Twitter for people, RSS for news

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Something I’ve been doing recently is going through my Twitter follows and cleaning out news feeds from them. In the vast majority of cases these places have RSS feeds which are easier to manage, don’t clutter up your Twitter stream and are just as easy to get to your phone or PC.

For some, RSS may be less convenient but I find news sites dumping 5 or 10 stories at a tine into my Twitter feed pretty damnably annoying too.

So, today’s mantra is “Twitter for people, RSS for news”.
