The cross-posting conundrum…

I’m a huge fan of hellotxt – it enables me do status-posting on e helluvalot of services that I would otherwise probably never post to. and as it turns out, posting on services like Plaxo and LinkedIn (where I wouldn’t post if I couldn’t do it automatically while posting on Twitter or Facebook) actually does spark up conversations.

But where to draw the line? And how?

At the moment I cross-post to:

I’m considering removing facebook from the list and posting separately on that one, and I suppose I could target my posts to Plaxo and LinkedIn more acurately to their intended audience. On the other hand, I do enjoy posting ridiculously personal status updates to up-tight-ish LinkedIn.

Any thoughts on cross-posting out there? (other than “don’t”)

    I use ping.fm to cross-post to facebook, twitter, jaiku and then use rss to pull twitter onto my blog. Photos go through Flickr to my blog. Allows me to “update” my blog-site more often with a greater variety of content. (blog pieces, status-statements and photos).

    But as you mention, the big job is finding out where to post personal stuff and where to post business talk. Doesn’t seem like facebook is personal frinds only.

    My present strategy is messy: Give various tools/services a test-ride and check where the crowd goes.
