At the risk of irony and meta, I’m posting @hotdogsladies’ 23 tweets about the serial tweeting of subjects which may have made great blog posts. Since the BlackBird Pie hack doesn’t work on Tumblr (it gets messy), here goes (remember, these were on 23 individual tweets)
Sometimes on Twitter, this thing happens
where somebody has twenty-three toots in a row,
which would constitute an awesome post—
Presented as twenty-three disjointed Twitter posts,
And, at least for me, it’s usually a little noisy.
I kinda wish I could throttle seeing “≥ x toots over y minutes.”
it’s like trying to read _Remembrance of Things Past_ in Morse code.
Certainly not an unfollow-level issue.
But, throttling would be a nice feature on Twitter.
Because, even when their content is thoughtful and super-smart,
a diarrhea of 23 toots can be a little noisy.
So, yeah. Feature request. “Twenty-three” is a lot of toots.
[And don’t get me started on the subsequent surfeit of “at” responses]
