So microsoft is killing their blog platform on live spaces and offer the users to migrate to wordpress, I guess they're giving up on competing in the crowded social marked and are focusing their efforts on search, messenger, and office products online while ad hoc-ing on other social platforms. Ofcourse their not alone google's once mighty blogger has for some time been feeling the heat from competition offering esasier to use and for power users maybe more important easier to customize solutions.Less then a month ago both bloglines and vox where in the process of / announcing that their services would shut down. Okay bloglines is/was technically not a blog service but a rss feed reader that started on blogging popularity. Now I can see why six apart are closing vox as it might not make much sense operating serveral overlapping services, but on different platforms.Yahoo! Gave up their 360 blog platform awhile back now, but did not give up on offering blogging service entirely, but instead they've taking it back to basic, and put it on users pulse page. Giving the user the ability to control who can see each post making it more of an blog/journal thing.. It also collects every post the user makes across the yahoo network which I think it's nice.Is the future only social networks?I welcome your thoughts on the subject.
So what happened to with the paranoid android who wouldn't share squad on the web? Well, I figured if I was going to share stuff I might do it properly... So now if yo dig a little bit around you can find me present on about every social network there is :). It's not about being an attention craving megalomaniac (or maybe it's a bit about that) - it's for most part about a genuine love for tech; not tech in itself; but the possibilities it enables people with, when it comes to social interactions. I've always voiced my opinion about stuff, to whoever friend or family member (unlucky) enough to be standing within my reach, so now I bring it out to the masses instead... ...it's also of course business as usual - in today's media and tech landscape you are your own brand, and more then ever the possibilities are endless; so to stay relevant you either embrace it, or you don't.... I still will give lectures to whoever unlucky friend I can grab hold of on any
