Thank you for this excellent post on “how to”.

Like the idea of home base and outposts.

I get twitter tools to work i WordPress, and are happy with that.

Thank you for writing this article.

Hey there,

really useful but can’t get the bit to work with Facebook.

Followed the instructions to the letter but still can’t get it to post to facebook despite tying it all up.

Any ideas?

cheers,

ian

hi i found this a very useful post since i’m actually gonna do this.. but there’s also one thing i found that might catch your attention.. in the first item of your last list (Still Need Help? section) you have:

…blog posts are automatically pushed to your socialk media presences

you might wanna fix that?

I’m not, of course, anti-Facebook but I do make a distinction between advertising media and social media. There are issues besides privacy (including control issues) that can impact where it makes sense to advertise. Free meals aren’t always good for you… and there are those who would suggest that there really is no such thing as a “free lunch.” My students will sometimes argue that if it’s free, go for it. I then suggest that they I hope they are taping their business cards in the stalls of every public bathroom they use–won’t cost you a dime and you do have a captive audience!

I did, by the way, ultimately remove the “like” button from my site.

In Support of Facebook,

True that the “share” option on this site can appear intrusive at first glance but, this only happens now and then and it is not a continuous phenomenon. What I do is chose the “cancel” button when asked if I’d like to share any private info. Most of the time you are only asked if you want to share (link) this page with your Fb page audience and, no pertinent info is asked for. It’s like some sites request more info and Fb lets you decide where to go from there, in the end it’s your choice. This is more than I can say about other sites that simply suck as much of your info as they can upfront or behind the scenes. The way I look at Fb is that they are offering me a free (nada, zilch) advertising venue and social drop in couch to do my thing. For that I am forever grateful. So it’s just a matter not putting the cart before the horse and never biting the hand that feeds you; especially when it’s a free meal.

Wow! at last, someone with some credibility feels the same way about Facebook as I do on a business level. Please allow me to finish the analogy you used with the Pub, and by the way, I have enjoyed my share of pubs (real ones not the fake ones in the US)in my time in both Scotland and Ireland and am saddened to hear about the nasty beer tax. Anyway, here you are in the Pub with these kids all around you, just about to put the goggles on and let fly when you come to your senses and just leave. Only problem is the Facebook kids FOLLOW you home! You rush outside and ask them to leave, if they don’t you are going to call the law, they pretend to leave but hang a sign on your door that says “Make a million bucks in one day-online guaranteed! Free Book tells you how”and every bum, wino and scammer in town is ringing your bell, day and night, sharing your location with other scammers. they rifle through your mail and talk to your neighbors and there is nothing you can do about it! I wrote about Facebooks tactics a year ago and it fell on deaf ears.

thank you for the entry. i’ve been wrestling with this exact issue: what to do with Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Flickr, Worpress, Myspace (I’m a musician on the side, ok! don’t judge) and other blog-ish type things… i think i’ve come up with a solution similar to yours. the idea is to use twitter as the ‘tweet’ hub, because it integrates with all the other apps and is part of the ‘twitter-sphere’… which is an adjustment, but will hopefully include more people in the conversation.

i like the pub analogy, however, i’d say that FBook is more like visiting your old college bar, after a reunion or something, and very casually shooting the sh*t with people who you’ve known for a while. Twitter is like sitting at a lunchroom discussion with a bunch of engineers at your local tech start-up. witty banter that can be cryptic at times but requires you to be a ‘smart person’ and ultimately pushes you to learn more.

design is conversation. cheers,

Very interesting and helpful… I may look into the “tweeting” aspect. As for Facebook… we’re definitely on similar pages. I added a FB “like” button to my posts and pages. A friend tested it for me and sent me a screen shot of what happened.

Without going through all the details, it appears that using the like button gives FB permission to change some of your privacy settings.

I’v left the button up for the time being, but find self re-thinking the relationship between my site and facebook.
