Love it - but not protected against comment SPAM we dropped it in favor of Blogger - WordPress ... just never excited me. Personally I look after 20 Blogs - nice to have a dashboard I used MT as soon as it was released… they still have yet to fix the back door SPAM issues.

It looks like a good site but I just don't see many people on it. Is anyone here actually using Mixx on a regular basis? It looks like a good site but I just don’t see many people on it.

The calendar sync is a bonus too, bringing together personal and professional calendars. Plaxo is actually better adapted to connecting to people that you hadn't thought of also, since it cross-references your address book with its db, and is synced regularly. Me again :)

I'm also planning on getting more involved in StumbleUpon. But I'm more active in the marketing niche networks: Sphinn, Gooruze and SEOmoz. And Facebook!

Blogging: Blojsom. Feed reader: Bloglines (used Rojo before, also great though unstable). Sharing: Stumble ;-) and del.icio.us, Mixx every once in a while.

I admit that I've never actually tried the built-in Outlook reader, but I may just take a closer look now :) For RSS reading, I quite like Attensa, and particularly the Attensa add-on for Outlook.

I don't use Twitter quite as much as you do, though -- it's a bit harder to get into. The one category you might be missing is networking sites (Facebook/LinkedIn/MySpace). I really don't enjoy Facebook anymore, but LinkedIn is great. I also enjoy Last.fm... my favourite way to find new music. I think I’m 4/4 in agreement with you.

I'm able to take advantage of the rss reader in Outlook 2007 (I don't think it's available in earlier versions). Twitter was getting me down there for a bit with being unreliable, but since right before SXSW they seemed to have recovered very nicely. Cheers!
