Leaving Facebook – Sort Of

I’ve decided I’m leaving Facebook…sort of. It starts with how I interface this site to Facebook…a site called Bridgy. It provides the ability to publish to Facebook and backfeed your comments back to my site.

Ryan Barrett, the man behind Bridgy and someone I probably pester entirely too often, announced on Thursday that he was shuttering Bridgy for Facebook entirely, as recent Facebook API changes had made it impossible for the service to work.

So now, if I want to post to Facebook, I would have to do so myself. I’m not sure I always want to do that, so you might see even less of me there. Sometimes, I likely will. And I won’t be able to save the interactions unless I manually save them.

Oh, well. Guess there is always Twitter.
