I use Twitter and Facebook on a daily basis, and recently installed the Twitter Facebook App, which updates my Facebook status with whatever my Twitter status is. The problem is, I don’t necessarily want to update my Facebook status as often as I want to update my Twitter status, and the Twitter Facebook App has no filtering mechanism, except for tweets that are directed at someone using @.

The obvious workaround is to put “@ ” at the beginning of any tweet that I don’t want to show up on Facebook…but that’s kind of annoying.  I also use Ping.fm which I have  written about previously.  So, I thought, how about I sync my Facebook status to one of the other services that Ping.fm posts to?  Unfortunately I couldn’t find one that had a decent Facebook app. Supposedly the Pownce app can sync, but I couldn’t get it to work.

The upside is that Ping.fm will be able to post to Facebook soon. They had the feature for a while, but with the recent Facebook upgrades the feature broke. Once it’s up and running again, I’ll be able to use the “triggers” feature to choose which services to post to post to select networks only.

All this for pretending folks want to know what I’m doing
