Update Your Facebook Status Using FB Notes With Blogger and FB's Twitter App

Facebook's Notes application makes posting your Blogger posts (or any type of blogging platform posts) super easy.  You just add the Notes app to your FB account using your blog address and everytime you post on your blog, your FB status updates a few minutes later.  Simple. 

The weird thing is that Blogger links are now completely blocked by MySpace.  That is a complete mystery to me.  The answer I was given when I inquired was that MySpace feels that Blogger is full of spammers or something like that.

Facebook also has a Twitter app that posts your tweets as an FB status update as well.  Also very nice and easy.   I tried a Twitter widget on one of my MySpace pages and it works occasionally.  Personally I feel that MySpace's failure to integrate other 2.0 social networking apps is going to be it's undoing.  Facebook is mastering this really, really well, IMHO.

Update 10/7/09: Just discovered that Twitter now syncs with MySpace. Will have to investigate further. Now if only MySpace would sync with Blogger.

Heh. I think MySpace meant to say that Blogger is one of their blogging competitors, so they won't let the links work. ;)
