Too many social networks, and cell phones

I’ve been playing with twitter. Lots of fun, nice quick way to keep up with people who don’t have time to create a blog entry.

I’m intrigued by what you can do with SMS and some of the sites out there - push rss content to your phone, update a micro-blog, keep up with other people’s lives, and with programs like Sandy, you canĀ  SMS yourself meeting reminders and updates. You can do the same with Google calendar, as well as get daily agenda sent to your phone.

I have a BlackBerry with Blackberry Enterprise Server service, so my work Outlook is already synced to my phone - contacts, calendar items, tasks, etc. But using a low-tech solution is always intriguing. I may get a personal cell phone for political reasons at work and implement a SMS-only plan.
