About a year ago, I finally got around to creating a Facebook page for Stray Hawkeye, and proceeded to do absolutely nothing with it.
Now, a year later, I’m trying to make it useful. Basically, I’m putting links to each new post on the wall. This is not so much a desperate attempt to be liked (or so I’m telling myself) as it is that several of my friends and family who read the blog have noted that it’s sort of a pain to check the site for updates, especially when they can be a bit sporadic (like lately).
So, hopefully this will make it easier to keep up to date on when there are new posts here. I think if you “like” the site on its Facebook page, new posts will show up in your news feed on Facebook. Granted that may depend on your settings – and I’d try to tell you how to set up the proper settings, but it seems like all of the Facebook setting pages change about every month, so I’m not even going to try. Good luck with that.
The Facebook page is located here if you’d care to like the site.
I also just made a Twitter page, which I plan to use for basically the same thing, for those of you who prefer Twitter to Facebook. That one has the fairly predictable handle of @StrayHawkeye. I’m completely new to this whole tweetmail thing, so Twitter pro’s please be gentle. In my mind @ still denotes an array variable in perl, and # starts a single line comment in korn shell scripts.
Noise to Signal Cartoon Via Swiss Miss (sort of, but I’ll get to that in another post soon).
Oh yeah, just to round out the needy-ness – look, I made you a qr code:
For some reason, now my blog feels like the back of a bag of potato chips
