Posting via other blogs
Hi all,
I want Posts to come on LJ here inbound from Facebook and/or Twitter. Does anyone know an interface for LJ that works from Facebook? I'm not so sure about Twitter unless that's the only way, because I find it insufficient to convey setting and emotion articulately enough in 140 chars.
-Should I just give up and go to Facebook entirely? I really don't want to.
I much prefer the LiveJournal layout and use policies.
:: begin rant::
Recently, Facebook nixxed my account because I had my first-name in my last-name field and vice versa without any warning. It was very disconcerting. Was remedied because I communicated with the sysAdmins there, but only though my own contacts. Other folks in a similar situation would be up-the-creek. It's HORRIBLE that they just diidn't email me first if it was a problem and equally HORRIBLE that the online help offered no remedy / no help/ no email address for questions / no contact details for when Sh]t happens like that on Facebook. It really lowered my respect for that site.
From other forums I found thousands of others on Facebook had been similarly slammed.
:: end rant::
If you know of a way to get Twitter-LJ-Facebook to all be happy with a single posting let me know, otherwise I'll just write a script of my own, but my personal time is very limited for such development.
