I just logged in to my Twitter account settings and lo and behold that new checkbox for me to recive that “weekly digest of Stories & Tweets from my network” was enabled by default. Gee, thanks.
This is not that I think Twitter’s new weekly digest is a bad idea, but I’m on Twitter enough as it is and don’t need an email telling me about what I likely already saw. Moreover, it would have been polite of Twitter to let me opt in to the new email list rather than requiring me to opt out.
