Then I got guilty. So I stopped it. But then I thought I don't have time for all this Twittering. So I started it again on one of my Twitter accounts. It's still going. I've also tried various Tweet buffers - even HootSuite has this functionality. It's not bad, but it feels like cheating. So I stopped it. I set up a last.fm rss feed to one of my Twitter accounts - more content for the pipeline. It's kind of cool. I'm leaving it up for now. I know lots of people have automated their feed. It might work for some, but those usually become unfollows for me. Twitter's best when it's live. Good post, Jason.

Good post, Jason.
