Link 'em All!

I'd like to dedicate this post to something that had me bothered some time back.

I personally am on quite a number of social netoworking sites: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Orkut and more recently gmail has come up with a new feature called as Buzz!! There are a lot more but this post ain't about the over exploitation of the social needs of a social animal. It's an irony that the connectedness on-line is leaving rest everything disconnected, but I'd just save it for another discussion.

Managing all of accounts singlehandedly and maintaining a presence on all can drive one nuts. A great way of making this happen without losing much time and energy is "Linking 'em All".


Let's start by linking Twitter and Facebook. There are several applications using which one can do the same. The most recommended(by me ;)) is Selective Tweets. Through this one can update one's facebook status with one's latest tweet. The advantage of this application is you can control which tweet gets updated as your facebook status.

1) Click to open Selective Tweets.
2) Click Allow.
3) Enter your twitter username in the Text box.
4) Click save.
P.S. : If you're currently using the Twitter application or other application to update your status, remember to remove or disable it so that it doesn't keep updating with all your tweets.
