Today’s featured free tool is Ping.fm. This is a pinging tool that lets you update all your social services with one update.This includes many types of services like sharing sites, blogs and micro blogging tools too.
Here are some of the popular services you can update with it:
Twitter, LiveJournal, MySpace, FaceBook, Tumblr, Hi5, Yahoo 360, Xanga, Mashable, Flicker, FriendFeed, LinkedIn. The list goes on.
The point of this type of tool is that it saves you from having to visit all those sites individually. The service can be used to update your status, add a link, talk about a project you’re working on and all your followers in those services get an update. You can’t converse with people unless you visit the sites indivdiually and you want to do that at least sometimes so you don’t appear to be a selfish social marketer but this can be a substantial time saver!
How Ping Fm Works
Sign up for all the social media sites you want to individually first and then sign in to Ping.fm. Then you can add your user name and password for each of those web 2.0 sites and begin taking advantage of Ping.fm. It does take a bit of time to set up initially but can be well worth the effort.
(PS: Update: Forgive my blunder. Yesterday I told you I’d write about making more online friends but started today’s post before reading my day planners. Tsk, tsk. Tomorrow Sean is posting so I’ll be sure to post about that topic for Thursday! Cheers, Dana)
Have a most outstanding day.
