Cross Posting
Jan. 4th, 2010 08:05 amHmmm, I'm trying to figure out how to make LJ posts automatically appear on FaceBook and Twitter, and I'm feeling it's harder than it should be.
What's probably making it harder is the fact that most of the search results I'm getting want to tell me how to do things that I don't want to do. Like posting everything to everywhere. Seriously, are there people who have twenty different blogs that they post the same content to (don't answer that, it's a rhetorical question)?
I don't want all my FaceBook or Twitter content to appear on LiveJournal, because I feel the former is for stuff that has immediecy but not much lasting value, while the latter is for stuff I'd like to be around a little longer, and a little more thought out (just a little).
I don't even want to cross post FB and Twitter to each other because I tend to post slightly different things and phrase them differently.
What I do want is a Tweet and FB update saying something like "posted a new LiveJournal entry titled Blah blah blah at http://...".
Is that too hard?
