Who's on Facebook & Twitter?

I've done a better job staying in touch with my 2nd WIFYR group than my first one. A few of us convinced several in the group to join Twitter. It's been fun and educational for me to keep tabs on their lives, but mostly it's been motivational. Since this group has withered a bit, I was wondering if perhaps you folks have moved on to Facebook and Twitter.

Here's my contact info. Please post yours in a comment. Let's try to stay in touch.

http://twitter.com/DouglasCootey - My creative stream and the one I recommend you follow. My writing centric stream. Low traffic.
http://twitter.com/SplinteredMind - A blog stream full of all the kinetic links and thoughts of my world. For some reason 820 people follow it. Mental health & politics color this stream considerably.

Creative Writing Exercise to Get Your Week Going

I'm launching a new creative writing feature on my blog called 'Musing Mondays. Nothing too time consuming. I post a picture I found or took & then I ask a question about it. I could use your input, even if you contribute just a silly paragraph. It'd be a great way to touch base with some of you again and hear from your wonderful minds. Thanks!

RSS Feed Difficulties

I have been unable to access the RSS feed of this blog since the end of the first week which is odd since it used to work just fine. Imagine my surprise to find out the blog has been very active over the past month. The feed requires authentication now, which is puzzling since I'm obviously able to post to the blog, but my username and password are not accepted for the feed. I can't find any setting that affects this issue.

I was wondering if anybody else is having trouble accessing:

I am prompted for a username and password for both the Atom and RSS feed. I am using Safari on OS X 10.5.4. I will test the feed with Flock next, and wonder if others are experiencing the same problem.
