It's frustrating on a lot of fronts, man. Over on Windy Citizen, we're asking local political bloggers to help moderate our Politics channel as we need some extra hands.

We got a volunteer who said she'd help moderate, but then all she wanted to do was post links on Facebook that pointed to WC stories. I explained to her that we were looking for her to help edit stories, post cool stuff, and participate in discussions and she kept asking if we could just move it all over to our Facebook page. I tried a few times to explain why that was counterproductive but she kept giving me blank looks. I asked her what web sites she visits, and she said, Facebook, Amazon, and Apple. That's it. Turns out, she doesn't even visit political blogs, she just visits their Facebook pages and talks about their content there. Unreal.

She's still posting her Facebook links, but the idea of her hanging out anywhere outside her "big 3" is just anathema to her. She's got X bandwidth for web sites, and it's all being consumed.
