I was bored, so I decided to map out my social media content flow.

Click for larger version.

I’ve broken the social media sites that I use into these categories:

Publish Regularly
This is generally where I create new content.

• The Rackspace Blog: This is where I blog about work related things.
• Twitter: My microblogging platform of choice. Without a doubt the most frequently updated (usually several times a day).
• Flickr: Where I post my photos
• DaveMitz.com: My personal blog. Not updated as much as it should be.
• LinkedIn: Professional social networking site.

Publish Occasionally
These are the sites where I publish content from time to time.

• del.icio.us: Bookmark sharing site.
• SlideShare: For sharing presentations
• Last.FM: What I’m listening to.

Aggregate
I use Profilactic to aggregate all of the above into a single stream, which is then piped to …

Display Content
These sites display the content generated above. I rarely create new content for these sites (with one exception).

• Facebook: I know this is supposed to be “the” social network, but honestly, I use it just to connect to people and then as a display mechanism for all of the other places that I generate content.
• Tumblr: Used purely to display content.
• FriendFeed: Used to display, aggregate and comment. I rarely publish on FriendFeed, but often use it as my primary feed reader.
• DaveMitz.com: This one fits in two categories - I publish data here, but I also use the “My Lifestream” and “Where to Find Me Online” sections as major aggregation and display points.

So, there you go … it seems like everyone has a different flow of social media content, and this one is mine. Feel free to send me a friend request on any of the networks I listed above. I almost always accept.

We got a new dog. His name is Jack. He is a 6 year old Yellow Lab, weighing in at 75 pounds of playfulness. We got him this Sunday from the Animal Defense League, a no-kill shelter here in San Antonio.
