"Share" should not be a default setting.
So, Bloglines, which I've been using as a blog-feed-reader for a while now, is shutting down its service beginning November 1st.
I'm trying to transfer everything over to Google Reader, and there's this thing called "Sharing Notifications" and apparently I'm following like 15 people (or accounts rather) and a handful of people are already following me.
I don't get it?
I don't particularly have a problem with people knowing what the nearly the tons of mostly-comics and politics blogs I'm following are, but I dislike the "WE'VE LISTED PEOPLE YOU'VE HAD E-MAIL CONVERSATIONS WITH AS YOUR FRIENDS! THEY'RE FOLLOWING YOU! YOU SHOULD TOTALLY STALK THEM!" kinda general creepiness.
*ignores the Repost-to-Facebook-and-Twitter settings at the bottom of the LJ post-page* Goddamnit.
