Digital simplicity

Manu’s feelings here are the same as my own:

But now, I don’t think it’s worth it. I don’t want to spend my time tracking which platforms are worth being on. I don’t want to spend my time setting up auto-posting from my site to every new website that comes online.

I just don’t care to maintain the complexity. If the platform where I’m posting has a simple checkbox to post it to Twitter when published, I may leave it checked. Otherwise, I have no plans to maintain automation schemes to the plethora of social network platforms that are swirling these days. My time is more valuable than whatever slight increase in readership I may receive.

My hope is that word of mouth and sharing of articles increase my readership organically over time. If it doesn’t… so be it.
