This was an excellent post.

I was contemplating putting my twitter feed on facebook and I had not done it yet. I was happy to read your post and it confirms my thouhts. My twtter people are not my facebook friends. The 140 characters wouldnt make sense to people not following the story.

I also laughed when you said facebook is the new classmates.com. I cannot believe in the last month how many people from high school contacted me there.

Anyways, thanks again.

Julie

I do some duplication, but not everything. Some overlap.

LinkedIN, Facebook, Twitter, yes.

I don’t have as much time as I’d like to write an in-depth post, but I’ll give a top-line.

My own website. I am an Art Director by trade, and my own site is the hub.
http://www.chrisgrayson.com

It has a portfolio, that is indeed duplicated on several industry specific sites
Specifically:
http://www.behance.net/ChrisG
http://www.coroflot.com/Chris_Grayson
http://chrisgrayson.carbonmade.com/

LinkedIN – As it is meant to be, is my professional history online. I’m also involved in many LinkedIN groups and participate in the Q&A:
http://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisgrayson

Facebook is a mix of professional and social. A lot more personal information is there, but I’m always well aware that what I post that also makes it into my professional circle.

I Tweet, and mostly keep it to professional marketing topics, and technology interests.
http://twitter.com/chrisgrayson

I use Delicious extensively, and while it duplicates pretty much anything I tweet, I also bookmark many Art, Design, Architecture, related subjects that I do not include in my Twitter dialog.

I also have social media accounts at more places than I can count, but these listed here are the ones I actively manage. I also check Spock somewhat regularly to make sure the links are accurate, but I don’t use it beyond that.
