If you personally get sick of over-saturation you can always un-follow the people spamming the hell out of it, but the reason you followed them in the first place is because you love skiing. I will say certain things get over posted, like Camp Windells I think is over covered but it is what it is.
I will say though Bishop, that when you guys really started amping up the social media cross posting, my personal visits to the site fell a good bit. If I can get the best of the weeks coverage from the NS facebook, why bother going to the site? I mean I still come here for the forums but the more casual user I can see never logging in.
I do feel like there is a similarity between the comment about why go to my friends house when I can watch it on my PC now and my friend can watch it on his PC as well that is echoed in gaming. Once internet became fast enough and cheap enough, Split screen gaming all but vanished. I am old enough to remember the days of me and my friends dragging 4 TVs and xboxs over and having an all weekend 16 player Halo 1 LAN party. Those days were great but ever since the internet came to be we now play together online instead of in person, but we do so with much more frequency because of how easy it is. So the question you need to ask yourself is would you rather be able to discuss more ski trailers together because you and your friends all watch them at home when you have the time, or try and organize days where you all get together and do it as a group? Personally I tend to air to the side of Ill watch it on my own and talk about it later, with maybe a movie premier or two a year being the throwback to the old days.
Sorry for the rambling post, I need to go to bed =)
