TwitterSkypebook ? yes Virginia its possible

Ok – so with this new world where everyone is a member of Facebook – uses Skype and Twitter – I got to thinking how difficult it is to update all the systems together…

After some google searching i discovered a little secret no one seems to know about. There is a Skype robot which will post to your Twitter account.Here are the simple instructions:

1. Add twitter4skype as a contact.
2. Type the following as a single chat message to twitter4skype:

/account (shift+return)
yourtwitteraccountname (shift+return)
yourtwitteraccountpassword (shift+return)
3. The system should return: twitter4skype Registration complete!
4. The next time you write a chat message to twitter4skype, the entry will appear on your account and you’ll receive your friends’ twitters in Skype.

Then – adding TwitterSync to your facebook application makes everything come together…
One last note – if you blog like me – you can add the twitter update to your blog and voila – a nice little update

Give it a try and let me know what you think about having your world come together …
hmmm – this planet is getting smaller and smaller and smaller

  1. Glenn,

    Great post and I’ve done all but the Skype part … will get to that later. However, do you (or anyone reading this) know how to get more than just your own (usr) tweets to show up on your blog? The regular RSS feed apparently won’t do it and I don’t see a WordPress gadget that seems to work (at least, not that I’ve seen). Anyone have a success with all their Twitter friends showing up on the blog?
