Comments on: Etiquette in blogging and social media http://exploringnewmedia.com/etiquette-in-blogging-and-social-media/ Blogs and podcasts and screencasts, oh my. And Social Media.

Taking on new forms of social media, while necessary, could continue to be overwhelming unless you break it into smaller pieces. I just do NOT have enough time in any week to learn everything. Since I am new to blogging, I don't yet have an answer for how I promote my blog. This "cabal" might just be the best way for me to learn about it.

I just do NOT have enough time in any week to learn everything.

Since I am new to blogging, I don’t yet have an answer for how I promote my blog. This “cabal” might just be the best way for me to learn about it.

The second link on my fan page is worded a little differently from the Twitter link. I really try to not inundate my friends/followers/fans with too many announcements about every post I publish--I think twice is enough.

Etiquette is a tough issue and it was good to get feedback from others. Especially helpful was consensus that adjusting the message to the group you send "new post" notice helps overcome over sending. Also appreciated Laura Faulkner's idea of pulling a key point from the post to put in the subject line to give people a heads up on the post and save them time.
