Do people actually complain to you for posting the wrong info in the wrong blog?

Ha... well... kinda.
My biggest complainer is me. I like to have things separated and it upsets me when, for some silly reason, I feel inclined to go against that separation.
But, yes, from time to time I've had people complain that I post too much "local" stuff, that I post too often in one day, that they don't really care about my technical posts, and that if I post too much they just end up skimming everything I write.
In a way, I'd like to have everything in just one big bucket and let people sort out what they want and what they don't want... but, I also know that I **LOVE** 1% of the content that BoingBoing publishes but can never really read it because the other 99% is just noise to me. So, I try to do what I can to separate so people can take greater interest in what small subset of me interests them most.
Yeah... I'm crazy. I know.

Tumblr doesn't have RSS that can be fed into LJ?
PS. I hope Disqus OpenID sucks less soon.

Yes... it totally has an RSS feed. *BUT*... using LiveJournal syndication is not all that enjoyable to me. I'd prefer to either disable LiveJournal comments or at least get notification when a comment was left in the Syndicated LJ... but, as best as I can tell, you can't "own" a Syndication account. That'd make things A LOT easier.

That is true. I guess a better solution would be something akin to LoudTwitter.

Absolutely. If I could get a daily digest of my Tumblr posts, that'd be perfect. Then, people who don't care about that can learn to skip it. And people want to just skim them can skim them. And people who want to have them as they come throughout the day can subscribe to the feed.
I'm working on a solution for all of this. I can't promise it'll ever see the light of day though. But I'm trying.
