After being offline this past week, I find a desire to return full speed has lessened. So, will see how I feel as the week goes on. <br /><br />I found out today, after being away for 5 days, that there is also something about having too many status updates, so your tweets go nowhere and you have to wait a couple of hours.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290283101378474845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-32962521493344529172010-05-11T06:13:37.676-05:002010-05-11T06:13:37.676-05:00Very interesting post, Glynn.

In the end, I've decided to take sabbaticals when I get too irked.<br /><br />Somehow, though, I always find a way to come back. I'd urge you not to make any rash decisions.<br /><br />In the meantime, I haven't told you how amazing your last batch of poems from the TSPoetry party were! 19 poems? Incredible just for sheer quantity, but they were interesting too.<br /><br />See you tonight?Marcus Goodyearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255781957722144278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-7058623063536610722010-05-10T23:08:02.113-05:002010-05-10T23:08:02.113-05:00I look forward to the links you share on a daily b...I look forward to the links you share on a daily basis ... leads me to some incredible treasure.S.

I wouldn't call you spammy. I have limited time, so I need to use the filters available. I have your blog in my Reader and I catch your tweets in a list I've created. I also follow a few others that RT your stuff. <br /><br />You are so plugged in, you are like a master resource, a secret weapon, a treasure and I'd hate to stop my need to have access to the marvelous stuff that just flows out of you and a few others. You have led me on some wonderful rabbit trails. You help me learn something new everyday. <br /><br />So maybe you need to adjust your technique? I'd come look for links in your blog. Why not collect links and just post them on your blog? Or there might be another solution? <br /><br />For me, FB and Twitter are two different things, different groups of people, they aren't interchangable. I made that mistake at first. It doesn't take any more time to maintain them than having them connected. One is like talking to my mother, the other is like talking to smart folks like you. <br /><br />Too long, I know. Sorry. Don't post if you don't want to.

I repeatedly click on your links and enjoy the variety -- from poetry to trending stories about news and ag. Keep up the good work.

It almost sounds like they can't handle the volume (for the funding they have). I say this as someone who used to work for an online place where the staff was too small to meet the growing needs.<br /><br />Our choice was either to fund or close. (We got funded, as you know :)<br /><br />So, with Twitter. Maybe it's time to get funded.L.L.
