I really don’t like auto-poster systems on Twitter. It smacks of spam, especially if the person doesn’t post anything other than blog posts.


Personally, I prefer when people only post their best articles to Twitter. Or, even when they post every article, but obviously do it manually. Combine that with other, non-blog posts, and it feel more genuine.


I have to agree with Dr. Mani above. I have unfollowed people for doing this.


I won’t unfollow Darren, because, well, he actually posts other stuff as well, and the vast majority of his blog posts are worth reading (though, I get them in my feed reader already). But, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this promotional tactic for everyone, as it has a fairly good chance of back firing.
