No matter how jazzed up and interactive it is. They are just a completely different kind of entity. Moreover, blogs can never replace social web sites. No matter how jazzed up and interactive it is.

I'm sure it can be done but isn't there a copyright issue there? Whoever leaves a comment on a certain site, may not want it to be copied to another site or blog. But, I don't get what the big deal is anyway. If everyone just wisened up and avoided putting up sensitive information on social sites then none of this would be considered a problem. Facebook, friendfeed they are all fine. Even if facebook had better security now, who would guarantee that there wouldn't be a problem sometime in the future? Moreover, blogs can never replace social web sites. No matter how jazzed up and interactive it is. They are just a completely different kind of entity. Another point is, why are we (not me personally!) so involved in this time-wasting online socializing that really goes nowhere? Leave twitter, ff, facebook and all that and get outside, live healthier and interact for REAL! In this internet age, people have become so lazy, dormant and unmotivated that it has become a real crisis. Bottom line is: keep your details to a minimum and don't help the creeps track you down. Then you will be fine on any website on this ever insecure, ever changing world of internet. “If the content could be pulled in an then permanently stored on the blog, it would be an additional step in the right direction.”

Regarding the use of a blog as a central hub, for me, the missing ingredient is the ability to chat with people in real-time. Of course, you ALSO need to know how to alert people that you are actually chatting on your blog so they can join in. Glad you like it.

I had my twitter account suspended once and lost everyone I had connected with. Currently looking for an alternative network. The safest place has to be your own site. Excellent post.

The safest place has to be your own site.
