This evening, I thought about setting up a flickr and a twitter account. Okay, okay… I did not just think about it, I did it. What a freakin’ show…

After setting up my accounts, which was very simple, I began to link ’em to facebook and back, I uploaded photos and back… And as I did this, I began wondering. “What the hell…?! What am I doing? All the information on every site and every picture on and in each account?”

I drawed a very simple drawing and I now have a question:

Is this, what Web 2.0 is supposed to be?

What do we have?

• a homepage
• a facebook account
• a blog
• a twitter account
• a flickr account
• maybe a online diary
• maybe a guestbook
• maybe a photo blog
• maybe a gallery
• maybe a Google account (grabbing feeds and more…)
• maybe this and
• maybe that

And they all talk to each other. Am I the only one on this planet, who is very, very confused with all those sites and applications? 🙂
