Hm, could it be the fact I use pingfm to post to brightkite that mess up the privacy settings? o.O

Ping.fm is a bit too smart for me when it comes to tags! But now I read the posting tips and now everything is crystal clear! ;) pingfm

Social Media Categories

When you start working with Social Media Marketing you need to measure it somehow. All sites and statistics need a place or category. It just makes it easier to find or gather together. Danny Sullivan (Guru) made his categorization on his blog. Here hare his subcategories of Social Media • Social News Sites • Social Bookmarking Sites • Social Networking • Social Knowledge • Social Sharing National Geographic’s subcategories of Social Media are quite similar • Social News Sites Digg Reddit Twitter Slashdot Jaiku • Social Bookmarking Sites StumbleUpon Diigo Delicious Meneame.net Propeller.com • Social Networking Facebook MySpace Orkut Care2 • Social Knowledge Wikipedia Yahoo Answers Squidoo Ask Metafilter • Social Media Sharing YouTube Flickr Tumblr DevianArt Recently I made my own categorization of Social Media and it looks like this. • Social Aggregators/Pushers Ping.fm Friendfeed Hello.txt Popurls Posterous Utterli Disqus • Social Bookmarking/Link sharing Diigo Delicious StumbleUpon Mister Wong Yahoo! Bookmarks • Social Collaboration Acrobat Skype • Social Experience Reporting Flixter Digg Reddit Yelp • Social Location Blogloc Fire Eagle IRL Connect Loki Plazes Tripit • Social Media News Chirps Jaiku Koornk Plurk Twitter Wordpress Blogger Xanga • Social Media Sharing 23 72 Photos Bebo.com Blip.tv Buzznet Drop.io Dropshots Fliggo Moblog Twitpic Viddler.com YouTube Zoomin • Social Live Broadcast Ustream Bambuser I will continue to work on my categories and post changes after evaluation. You can also look at the well known “The Coversation Prism” categorys Image address http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3009/2735401175_fcdcd0da03.jpg?v=0 Brians blog http://www.briansolis.com/2008/08/introducing-conversation-prism/

Facebook: Can I update my fb status from another application?

Yes, you can. There are numerous ways of you updating your fb status, and this article tells you the most popular ways " HOW TO: Update Facebook From Outside Facebook".

I've also included a video on Ping.fm which is a free online service that lets you update not only your facebook status but also twitter and a list of other social media sites.

 

If you're interested in reading more about Ping.fm see our article "Updating all your Web 2.0 sites in a snap".

ping.fm back up!

Lo and behold...ping.fm is back up!

ping.fm down

Hmm...while trying to decide which updater to use, ping.fm went down. Sad days indeed.  ping.fm appears to have more places that it can update versus posterous, but since it is down, I guess I'll use posterous!  hahaha!  The other service that I'm looking into is hellotxt but that service does not seem to be able to update tumblr.  Oh well. 

Customizing the autopost feature on Posterous

Great feature on Posterous!  If you've never used Posterous, you should take a look.  It is a blog platform that allows you to post by email but comes with a few key features for those users that are active on many platforms.  The most interesting of these features is the autopost feature that allows you to post to Posterous and have it autopost to all of your other profiles.

I have used Ping.fm for clients in the past to auto-post to other social profiles, but it doesn't compare to the easy of use on Posterous.  It took less than 10 minutes to add my accounts and I didn't have any snags with Facebook. 

Ping.fm took me weeks to get both the personal profile and Fan Page integrated and a few days later one would work and the other would not.  This is the first post to test how it propagates across all of my profiles.  I will follow up with a second post to share the findings.

Fingers crossed!
