Twitter – I block spam and snake-oil salesmen. I don’t tend to follow those who I can’t work out. I follow cultural and creative people like artists, museum workers, some designers/architects and the occasional “magazine” twitter. I’m very careful who I follow and who follows me so you can be sure that my twitter circle is a coherent network. I don’t like “Thanks for following” messages that feel automated or empty.

Facebook – I befriend pretty much anyone who looks like a real person. People tend to use this as a way to communicate with me/show me stuff like every comment is a mini-forum, which I’m quite happy with. I think I’ve only unfriended one person who sent constant Send-To-All messages about the most inane things. Invite me to interesting groups. Don’t bother inviting me to events.

Tumblr – Images of interesting stuff I don’t blog but want to make a note of. I’ve made some really interesting connections on there so would like to continue that.

Delicious – A daily reading list/research directory that I DON’T CHARGE YOU FOR. I’ve not yet fully worked out the network features on this, but feel free to “fan”. I like being sent interesting links.

Cafepress Shop – Buy a mug. Buy a t-shirt. What little money I make from this goes into bandwidth costs. I’ll put some more up soon.

Flickr – I use this mainly to search for Creative Commons photos, but if you want to be a contact, go right ahead. I am grabbing that feed of latest photos so I will notice. Maybe, in the future, I’ll take a photo and put it on here.

Last.fm – My listening habits for all to see. This has something of an inner-circle of my social networks so announce who you are if I won’t recognise your username. There is also Radio Newcurator, same rules as twitter.

As always, I am contactable via email pete(at)newcurator.com
