Auto-connect your #Twitter tweets to #LinkedIn

This post is also available in: Dutch

As I mentioned earlier, the posts on my weblog automatically get tweeted to Twitter, as well as Facebook, Plaxo and Hyves. I felt sorry for my LinkedIn account. I’m not keeping it up to date with status updates, because I refuse to enter the same information in all those networks manually if those clever computers can’t do it for me. And that hanged today as Guido Jansen shows us in a presentation how to connect your twitter timeline to LinkedIn status updates. The system responsible for this is ping.fm and while I was there anyway, I decided to take care of MySpace as well 🙂

Meaning: the posts on my weblog are automagically reposted to:

  1. Twitter
  2. Facebook
  3. Plaxo
  4. Hyves
  5. LinkedIn and
  6. MySpace

Right! That saves a lot of time and this way everybody gets to read the stuff they’re interested in on the network of their choice. The only thing left on my wishlist is Hyves. Hyves doesn’t like Twitter’s #hashtags, which currently results in hashtagged tweets not being posted to Hyves. Ping.fm is able to remove hashtags (as it does with LinkedIn), but it has no support for Hyves yet (or the other way around).
