Facebook Takes Aim at Twitter: New Publisher Makes Public Status Updates Easy

Did you notice that your Facebook status is a bit different? Notice the "lock" icon when you post an update? Facebook is now giving you the option to broaden the viewing of your updates beyond your Friends, and you can customize it for each status update you write.

Check it out on this link from Inside Facebook, and excellent Facebook resource for you. Facebook Takes Aim at Twitter: New Publisher Makes Public Status Updates Easy

Are you aware that LinkedIn has a similar setting? You can't customize it for each update but you can change the settings in order to broaden your message to more people outside of your connections. Once you log on, go to Account & Settings (top right), look under Settings and find "Status Availability." Status always defaults to your Connections but you can open it up to your Network or to Everyone. I recommend choosing Everyone in order for you to get more traction from your updates. Similar settings are available for your "Member Feed" and you can find that right below the "Status Availability."

If you have any questions about your settings or how you should use them for your own personal or business situation, please shoot me an email and I'll be glad to answer.

Welcome to HootSuite, the ultimate Twitter toolbox -...

Welcome to HootSuite, the ultimate Twitter toolbox -...

Especially made for those who are managing personal and business Twitter accounts, have multiple accounts for different businesses or who manage multiple accounts for their clients or within their own company, HootSuite solves the problem of having to log-in and log-off of various Twitter accounts. You can now simply manage all accounts - and just about all aspects of Twitter -- from one dashboard. Tweetdeck is great if you are managing just one account but it didn't work well for me. HootSuite also gives you the ability to have one administrator but allows you to assign additional editors/writers.

Take a look at the Hootlet, too. Great toolbar app so you can easily tweet about a web page you're visiting - and you can do it from any one of the accounts you're managing in one simple step.

There's only one thing that I've not been able to figure out yet -- and that is how to initiate a direct message (DM) to someone who hasn't DM'd me. Also, I don't think it manages auto-replies and that would be a nice feature as I do DR copy testing for some clients and eliminate the auto-replies for others. The good news is that it seems like new features are continually being added so HootSuite will get even better in the months ahead. HootSuite is being used by larger companies such as National Geographic and active Tweeters like Guy Kawasaki. Check it out and let me know what you think. Would love to hear your feedback on the user interface.
