Update Your Facebook Status With Twitter
Did you know that you can update your Facebook status with Twitter? I know is sounds bizzare but for me it’s a really, really cool thing. I don’t log-in to facebook that often and never update my status, but since I’ve set-up tweeting into facebook, it’s opened up some great new social media activities. I have a set of friends on Facebook who never use Twitter, It’s mainly just more geeky friends (sorry if I’ve offended anyone). So I tweet and I now may get an email from Facebook saying that somebody has replied to my Facebook status and it sparks up a conversation there, which normally I would never of had.
I also like the fact that it filters out @tweets so people are confused when not in the loop. It would be nice though to decide which tweets are posted on facebook, maybe by using a a Facebook tag or something. I can see how it could get a little annoying for other people on Facebook as it may clog up the status feed. There are a few improvements which could be made, but it all seems like that one step closer to intergrating different online social communities.
