Facebook might not be the best example since there is an assumption that people are following you. I had an experience where a blog of someone I knew starting arriving in my gmail in box. That felt a bit intrusive since I had never asked to get it and I was clearly not the audience for it. It took several attempts before it went away. It makes sense to me that networked sites like Facebook or LinkedIn be automatic, but with everything knitted together I wonder if I have the ability to customize the broadcasting to suit my needs.

When you say "broadcasting" to your other web properties do you mean Facebook? If you hook your blog's RSS feed into FB, for instance, whenever you blogged it would automatically post to FB (assuming you hooked it up). And everyione who follows you on FB would consume your content there --- on FB -- because they are essentially already "opted-in." Is that what you mean?
