UPDATE: The better way to accomplish this these days is with ping.fm or hellotxt.
One of my associates in the writing and marketing world just asked me how I link up all my social media accounts so I don’t have to trot around to each site/tool to keep everyone informed. At first, I started to scratch my head… How did I do that? It took place over several months, piecemeal. So I traced my steps, drilled into some menus and put it all together…
These will make your social networking/social media life easier:
- The following app updates Facebook with your tweets: http://apps.facebook.com/twitter/?ref=ts
- In Plaxo, there’s a link to connect your Facebook status in Plaxo: It’s under settings (upper right) in Plaxo. Here’s the link: http://www.plaxo.com/settings/facebook
- Here’s a little setting where you can hide Twitter @ replies in Plaxo: http://www.plaxo.com/settings/filters
- The following page syncs Twitter with Plaxo Pulse: http://www.plaxo.com/settings/profile
I also use http://www.twitterfeed.com to update Twitter whenever I post something new to my blog.
If you’re doing video, the following site allows you to upload a video once and distritube it automatically to multiple video sites like Viddler, YouTube, Vimeo, Yahoo Videos and so forth: http://tubemogul.com/
Now, off you go… start communicating like an many-tentacled thing!
