I meant to link to this one a VERY long time ago (like January) but it fell into a folder of stuff I forgot about.<\/p>\n

Links shared on Twitter are relatively fleeting. Isn\u2019t the average lifespan of a Tweet something like 120 seconds? Thus, someone who checks Twitter once or twice a day probably has to scroll through myriad of tweets if they want to find your links of value.<\/em><\/p>\n

If, however, those links are being posted to a website then they are more \u201cstatic\u201d (less fleeting) \u2014 someone looking for the day\u2019s links can go to their websites of choice and browse through the 3 or 4 or 10 which were posted, read the accompanying commentary, and click the ones they\u2019re interested in.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Like Shawn’s post I linked to earlier (photography and likes), he has a point but continues to talk more on readership and engagement than producing quality content. I’d prefer an author link to things on their blog and give feedback instead of use Twitter to share things.<\/p>\n

Reason #1, I don’t use Twitter anymore and, when I did, I didn’t see every post from bloggers who author blogs that are “must not miss” on each post they compose. The second reason is that short form tweets don’t allow authors the ability to use proper grammar or get their thoughts out in a longer format.<\/p>\n

This link post was over 1K characters or 10 tweets. It’s better as a blog post.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"via ShawnBlanc: I meant to link to this one a VERY long time ago (like January) but it…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3957","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-linked","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-11P","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":1890,"url":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/2011\/03\/17\/announcement-changes\/","url_meta":{"origin":3957,"position":0},"title":"\u2605 Announcement: Changes…","author":"Adam Chandler","date":"March 17, 2011","format":false,"excerpt":"I've been thinking a lot about this blog and its future.
