Here we go again

Less than 3 months ago that I started my current position. It's not that I make a habit of changing jobs, but I've just given notice and will be switching to a new position less the 10 min. from where I live (instead of 1 hr).

Getting more involved online

Every time I promise myself to get more active online...I fail.  This time will be different though. I've spread out and found great ways to involve myself, here/read others views and respond/force my views onto others.  Ways that are more instant or visual than a blog; although I hope to make it all be more active.

• Seesmic
Imagine IRC chat but via short video clips. You may want to put out a question to the community or  reply to someone else. The conversations can be deep or whimsical but it can be thought provoking

• Friend Feed

  Not a social network itself, but a way you can post from any of 35 (and growing) different accounts. A person's feed shows twitters, blog entries, seesmic, youtube, google reader shared items, etc. If there is someone you want to follow, watch their feed. You can also see your friend's friends feed.  What makes Friend Feed even more is the ability to comment on items in the feed. This forms a conversation on a video, site, entry, photo, etc.
• Twitter
Send a quick note via mobile or IM (among other methods).  It could be a quick "What I'm doing now" or something deeper.  To me it's greatest strengths is when it's combined with the other two.  Your tweets (twitter messages) shows up on your Friend Feed and you can have Seesmic send a tweet when you post a new video comment.

My goal is to twitter more, comment more, post more and just be a more interesting person online. Fingers crossed.
