This is just a beginning that I cooked up yesterday afternoon, and there is a lot of room for expansion. More importantly, there is the question about the effects, if any, that the distribution network has on traffic and rankings.
I created a visual representation of the RSS distribution channel here, on Scribed.com.
August 3, 2010 Update
1. I removed my test blog on Presently.com from my distribution channel. Presently.com is in the business of creating and selling enterprise in-house micro-blogging software. The free hosted micro-blog that Presently.com offers is intended, it seems to me, as a live demo of the software, rather than as a working tool or community in the public internet environment. I looks like fine software, but it wasn't designed or intended for my purpose.
2. Since I will be originating posts on Tumblr.com, to keep it alive, I decided those new posts will be distributed to Twitter and Facebook. Why not?
3. Moved Facebook off of my Twitter feed and onto a Ping.fm feed for the Microenterprise blog posts. The way it was before resulted in double posting of Tumblr posts on Facebook. Not good.
The RSS distribution channel map has been revised, expanded, moved, and re-published, here.
