I decided to add just a bit of automation to see how things go.

I’m using IFTTT to send certain posts I publish out to my ADN and Twitter timelines. I’m still not thrilled about sounding robotic, so I’m doing my best to make sure the updates that do get pushed to those channels are the same brief messages I would ordinarily post.

For anyone who’s interested, I added RSS feeds for those post types to my footer below. I don’t expect them to get much use, but I like the flexibility this technology provides.

If this all sounds strange and convoluted, it is. This is mostly an experiment for now, but I hope to share a bit about the motivations, process, and results after I’ve had time to play around a bit.
