Update Your Facebook Status Directly From Twitter!

Some of our Tweets are not relevant to Facebook and should not be cluttering up our Facebook wall. Many consist of fragmented conversations which are useless to our Facebook friends.

We certainly do not want our Facebook to turn into a Twitter stream look-a-like. But, there are times it would be advantageous to post a link to a new blog post simultaneously to both Facebook & Twitter. Anything to save me time and make my day more productive is my motto!

To start you need to go to Selective Twitter App and enter your Twitter username.

Add your Twitter username as instructed….  and your done.

Now when you are in Twitter and you want to add the same information to Facebook, but don’t want to take the time to log into Facebook, you just add  #fb at the end of any Tweet and it will show up on your Facebook status update. Be patient as there can be a minute or two delay after you post on Twitter.

It also works with Fan Pages… But it will not work if your updates are protected.

Try not to overwhelm your Profile Page or Fan Page with too many updates, be selective.

Do not allow  Twitter to update your Facebook automatically.  If you are currently using the  Twitter application or other app to update your status, be sure to remove or disable it so that it doesn’t keep updating all your tweets.
