@MatchesMalone – I guess that’s part of the joy of Social Media, everyone can use it in the way they see fit… Would you? Why, or why not?

@Frank S – agree completely.. I guess some people just don’t know or understand how to use a tool, so want to blame others, rather than claim ownership ;)

@Keegan – indeed, I’m probably one of those people, on some days.. Glad it helps ;) Updates can be a blessing and or a curse – depends on your needs at that exact moment in time!

Perfect find! I was looking for ways to slow peoples updates on my facebook account. It all seems so easy now.
I like that they’re integrated some days’ but some people just don’t know when to stop

I totally agree with jj. If people would familiarize themselves with all the of options that they have, they could simply adjust their settings instead of complain. Sorry to be harsh, but that’s my opinion.

The question isn’t, should they be integrated. The question should be, why you would want to.

I’ll let the rest of you figure that out.

Follow me on Twitter.

hmm – good point! Might suggest that as a solution, and just relink my twitter to my facebook again.. Cos it really is nicer for everyone to be able to see my updates, and I really don’t want to have to manually add it if it’s on twitter and not on Facebook..

To be honest, I find the frustration of Facebook people in being bombarded with people’s twitter stream highly amusing, for two reasons:
1. they can easily block my status updates from their updates stream if they find them irritating (hit ‘Options’ and select ‘less about Joanne Jacobs’);
2. status updates are *status updates*. If your status changes and you happen to record that, then that’s your right. You could update just as frequently on Facebook even with intimate friends, and still annoy them.

Personally I find the whole outrage over regular status updates on Facebook rather blown out of proportion. Those who complain ought simply to learn how to use the technology they choose to use as the source of their contact with friends.
