I got an interesting question about HOW I’ve tied Facebook, Twitter, and DougMeade.com together. The answer ended up being longer than a status comment is allowed to be on facebook. So I thought I’d put the info here.
Here’s the breakdown - I hope it’s not too confusing.
I’ve decided that (for me) everything starts from twitter … if you’re curious here’s why I chose to use twitter as my “home base”

Anyway…
I have a wordpress plugin called “twitterTools” running on DougMeade.com that creates posts from my tweets, and tweets from my posts.
Here’s a link to the plugin:

Also I use the Twitter FaceBook app to put my tweets in my status.
Here’s a link to the facebook app:

My only concern at the moment is… what happens when I reply to a tweet. I’d rather NOT have any twitter replys show up as my facebook status.
Previously I was using a wordpress plugin called “wordbook” to update Facebook with my blog posts .. which were being created by my tweets.
That worked great because twitterTools doesn’t create posts for twitter replys - so I never had to worry about facebook being updated with those.
The downside is that WordBook updates the wall - not the status.
But other than that it’s a good tool.
Here’s a link to WordBook:

…In the end I may have to create my own app.

I am impressed by your geeky-ness….
Eh it’s more “lazy” than “geeky” … I just don’t want to have to updated a million sites, and I like the idea of short quick blog posts.
We’ll see if the new site focus helps keep things updated here.
UPDATE:
It appears that the official twitter app does NOT post replies you make on twitter to you facebook status.
This is very good news.
All I need now is an easy way to assign tweets to various categories.
Ideally I could add a hash tag to a tweet to categorize the resulting post.
